Fenario

As we marched down to Fenario
We marched down to Fenario
Our captain feel in love with a lady like a dove
And they called her pretty Peggy-O

Come tripping down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O
Tripping down the stairs, pretty Peggy-O
Come tripping down the stair, Combing back your yellow hair
And waiting for you there is sweet William-O

Oh, would you marry me, pretty Peggy-O
Would you marry me, pretty Peggy-O
If you'll marry me then the city will go free
And it's this I promise thee, pretty Peggy-O

I would marry you, Sweet William-O
I would marry you, Sweet William-O
I would marry you, but you wear that coat of blue
I'm afraid my ma would be angry-O

If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O
If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O
If ever I return, then the city I will burn
And destroy all the ladies in the area-O

Sweet William he is dead, pretty Peggy-O
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
