Artist/Band: Bob Dylan
Lyrics for Song: Handsome Molly
Lyrics for Album: Live 1961-2000 [1985]



(first release, live version "second gaslight

tape", late 1962¡ºtraditional, arranged by bob dylan)



Well, I wish I was in london,

Or some other seaport town

I'd put my foot on a steamboat

I'd sail the ocean 'round.



While sailing 'round the ocean,

While sailing 'round the sea

I'd think of handsome molly

Wherever she might be.



Don't you remember, molly

You gave me your right hand?

You said whenever you'd marry

I would be the man.



But you broke your promise

Go with whom you please

My poor heart is aching



You are at your ease.



I went to church last sunday

Molly came ridin' by

I could tell her mind was changin'

By the rovin' of her eye.



I go down to the river

Though everyone's asleep

I think of handsome molly

An' I begin to weep.



So I wish I was in london,

Or some other seaport town

I'd put my foot on a steamboat

I'd sail the ocean 'round.
