Peggy-O (Live at Portland Memorial Coliseum, Portland, OR, May 19, 1974)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] As we rowed out to Fennario As we rowed out to Fennario Our captain fell in love With a lady like a dove And he called her by name, pretty Peggy-O [Verse 2] Come down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O Steppin' down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O Come steppin' down the stairs, combing back your yellow hair Prettiest lady in the area-O [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Will you marry me, pretty Peggy-O? Will you marry me, pretty Peggy-O? Will marry you me? I will set your city free And free all the peoplе in the area-O [Verse 4] I would marry you, sweet William-O I would marry you, sweet William-O Well, I would marry you but your guinеas are too few And I fear my mama would be angry-O [Instrumental Break] [Verse 5] What would your mother think, pretty Peggy-O? What would your mother think, pretty Peggy-O? What would your mother think if she heard my guineas clink? Saw me marching at the head of my soldiers-O [Verse 5] If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O If ever I return, all your cities I will burn Destroy all the people in the area-O [Outro] As we rowed out to Fennario As we rowed out to Fennario Our captain fell in love With a lady like a dove And he called her by name, pretty Peggy-O [Instrumental] We're having technical difficulties, as you might have assumed. We'll be with you in a minute
