Paddy Schmidt – Peggy Gordon lyrics
O Peggy Gordon, You are my darling
Come sit you down upon my knee
And tell to me the very reason
Why I am slighted so by thee
I am so deep in love that I can't deny it
My heart lies smothered in my breast
But it's not for you to let the world know it
A troubled mind can find no rest
I leaned myself on a cask of whiskey
It was my fancy, I do declare
For when I'm drinking, I'm always thinking
Wishing Peggy Gordon was there
I wished I was in a lonesome valley
Where womankind cannot be found
Where all the birds do change their voices
And every moment a different sound
I wish I was away in Ingo
Far away across the sea
Sailing over deepest waters
Where love nor care never trouble me
Come sit you down upon my knee
And tell to me the very reason
Why I am slighted so by thee
I am so deep in love that I can't deny it
My heart lies smothered in my breast
But it's not for you to let the world know it
A troubled mind can find no rest
I leaned myself on a cask of whiskey
It was my fancy, I do declare
For when I'm drinking, I'm always thinking
Wishing Peggy Gordon was there
I wished I was in a lonesome valley
Where womankind cannot be found
Where all the birds do change their voices
And every moment a different sound
I wish I was away in Ingo
Far away across the sea
Sailing over deepest waters
Where love nor care never trouble me
