Artist/Band: The Stanley Brothers
Lyrics for Song: Handsome Molly
Lyrics for Album: Early Starday-King Years 1958-1961 [1995]



Well I wish 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



I saw her at church last Sunday

She passed me on by

I knew her mind was changing

By the roving of her eye



Her hair as black as a Raven's

Her eyes were black as coal

Her teeth shown like lilies

Out in the morning cold



Now do you remember Molly

When you give me your right hand

Said if you ever married

I'd be your man



Now you've broke your promise

Go marry whom you please

My heart is broken

'Til I get some ease
