Pretty Peggy - O Lyrics

As we rode out to fennario, as we rode on to fennario Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove And called her by a name, pretty peggy-o.
Will you marry me pretty peggy-o, will you marry me pretty peggy-o If you will marry me, I'll set your cities free And free all the ladies in the are-o.
I would marry you sweet william-o, I would marry you sweet william-o I would marry you but your guineas are too few And I fear my mama would be angry-o.
What would your mama think pretty peggy-o, What would your mama think pretty peggy-o, What would your mama think if she heard my guineas clink Saw me marching at the head of my soldiers. [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/pretty-peggy-o-lyrics-grateful-dead.html ]
If ever I return pretty peggy-o, if ever I return pretty peggy-o If ever I return your cities I will burn Destroy all the ladies in the area-o.
Come steppin' down the stairs pretty peggy-o, Come steppin' down the stairs pretty peggy-o, Come steppin' down the stairs combin' back your yellow hair Bid a last farewell to your william-o.
Sweet william he is dead pretty peggy-o, sweet william he is dead pretty peggy-o, Sweet william he is dead and he died for a maid And he's buried in the louisiana country-o.
As we rode out to fennario, as we rode out to fennario Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove, And called her by a name, pretty peggy-o.
