As we marched out to Fennerio

            C                         G

Our Captain fell in love

              G       G/F#   Em

With a lady like a dove

And he called her by name, Pretty Peggy-O

Would you marry me, pretty Peggy-O?

Would you marry me, pretty Peggy-O?

If you would marry me, I would set your cities free

Free all the ladies in the are-o

I would marry you, sweet William-O

I would marry you, sweet William-O

I would marry you but your Guineas are too few

And I fear my mama would be angry-o

What would your mama think, pretty Peggy-O

What would your mama think, pretty Peggy-O

What would your mama think, If she heard my Guineas clink?

Saw me marching at the head of my soilders-o.

Come a-steppin down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O

Come a-steppin down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O

Come a-steppin down the stairs, Combin’ back your yellow hair

Bid a last fair well to your William-O

For 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 ladies in the are-o

Sweet William he is dead, pretty Peggy-O

Sweet William he is dead, pretty Peggy-O

Sweet William he is dead, And he died for a maid

And he's burried in Louisana country-O

As we marched out to Fenerio

As we marched out to Fenerio

Our Captain fell in love, With a lady like a dove

And he called her by name, Pretty Peggy-O
