Peggy-o Lyrics - Dick's Picks, Vol. 15 - Grateful Dead

As we rode out to Fennario, as we rode on to Fennario 

Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove 

And called her by a name, pretty Peggy-O. 

Will you marry me pretty Peggy-O, will you marry me pretty Peggy-O 

 

If you will marry me, I'll set your cities free 

And free all the ladies in the area-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 soldiers. 

If ever I return pretty Peggy-O, if ever I return pretty Peggy-O 

If ever I return your cities I will burn 

Destroy all the ladies in the area-O. 

 

Come steppin' down the stairs pretty Peggy-O, 

Come steppin' down the stairs pretty Peggy-O, 

Come steppin' down the stairs combin' back your yellow hair 

Bid a last farewell to your William-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 buried in the Louisiana country-O. 

 

As we rode out to Fennario, as we rode out to Fennario 

Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove, 

And called her by a name, pretty Peggy-O.
