1
O Polly love, O Polly, the road has now begun
2
And we must go a-marchin' at the beating of the drum
3
Go dress yourself all in your best and come along with me
4
I'll take you to the war, me love, in high Germany
5
O Willie love, O Willie, come list' what I do say
6
My feet they are so tender I cannot march away
7
And besides my dearest Willie I am with child by thee
8
Not fitted for the war, me love, in high Germany
9
I'll buy for you a horse, me love, and on it you shall ride
10
And all my d'light shall be in riding by your side
11
We'll stop at every ale house and drink when we are dry
12
We'll be true to one another, get married by and by
13
O cursed be them cruel wars that ever they should rise
14
And out of merry England press many a man likewise
15
They pressed my true love from me, likewise my brothers three
16
And send them to the wars, me love, in high Germany
17
Me friends I do not value nor me foes I do not fear
18
Now me love has left me, I wonder far and near
19
And when me baby it is born and smiling on me knee
20
I'll think of lovely Willie in high Germany
21
O Polly love, O Polly, the road has now begun,
22
And we must go a-marchin' at the beating of the drum
23
Go dress yourself all in your best and come along with me
24
I'll take you to the war, me love, in high Germany
