Handsome Molly Lyrics - The Stanley Brothers

Well I wish that I was in London 

Or some other seaport town 

Step my foot in a steamboat 

And sail the ocean round 

Sailing round the ocean 

Sailing round the sea 

I'd think of Handsome Molly 

Wherever she may be 

Well I saw her at church last Sunday 

She passed me on by 

I knew her mind was changing 

By the rolling of her eye 

Now do you remember Molly 

When you give me your right hand 

Said if you ever married 

Then I'd be the man 

Now you've broken your promise 

Go marry whom you please 

My heart is broken 

Till I get some ease 

Well I wish that I was in London 

Or some other seaport town 

Step my foot in a steamboat 

And sail the ocean round
