Oh    Peggy Gordan   You are my darling   Come sit you down upon my knee   And tell to me the very reason why I am slighted so by thee      I'm so in love that I can't deny it   My heart lies    Smotheres in my breast but it's not for you to let the world know it   A troubled mind can know no rest      I put my head to a glass of brandy   I was my fancy I do declare    For when I'm drinking I am always thinking   And wishing Peggy Gordan was here      I wish I was in some lonesome valley where womankind cannot be found   Where little birds sing upon the branches   And every moment has a different sound       Oh    Peggy Gordan    You are my darling   Come sit you down upon my knee   And tell to me the very reason why I am slighted so by thee
