Peggy Gordon Lyrics

O Peggy Gordon, you are my darling
Come sit you down upon my knee,
Come tell to me the very reason
Why I am slighted so by thee. I'm so in love, I can't deny it
My heart lies smothered in my breast
It's not for you to let the world know it,
A troubled mind can know no rest! I leaned but my head to a cask of brandy
It was my fancy I do declare
For when I'm drinking, I am thinking
And wishing Peggy Gordon was here. I wish I was away in IngoThe Dubliners - Peggy Gordon - http://motolyrics.com/the-dubliners/peggy-gordon-lyrics.html
Far across the briny sea,
Sailing o'er the deepest ocean,
Where love nor care never bother me! I wish I was in some lonesome valley,
Where womankind cannot be found
Where the pretty small birds do change their voices
And every moment a diff'rent sound! O Peggy Gordon, you are my darling,
Come sit you down upon my knee,
Come tell to me the very reason
Why I am slighted so by thee.
