Polly Lyrics
Polly (波莉) - Kate Rusby
Polly she's kind she is pretty and she is fine
She's fallen for a sailor and he to her proved kind
He said I'm sorry for to say Polly I must sail away
Oh but I will take you dancing upon our wedding day
Oh but I will take you dancing upon our wedding day
Seven years are o'er seven years or more
Polly's waiting for her sailor she weeps there on the shore
At length a man came by weeping Polly he did spy
Maiden let me take you dancing and let your tears be dry
Maiden let me take you dancing and let your tears be dry
Polly in surprise she wipes her tear and then she sighs
I fear that my young sailor on the ocean bed lies
For you I've not a care for my heart is with him there
And I'll never go a-dancing with you I do declare
And I'll never go a-dancing with you I do declare
Polly don't you see oh that happy now we'll be
For I am your young sailor who's come home from the sea
And here with you I'll stay and no more I'll sail away
But we will go a-dancing upon our wedding day
We will go a-dancing upon our wedding day
Oh and let me take you dancing upon our wedding day
