Handsome Molly

Strawbs - Handsome Molly



I wish I was in London

Or some other sea port town

I'd set my foot on a steamboat

That'd sail the ocean around



Sail across the ocean

Sailing across the sea

I think of handsome Molly

Where ever I may be



Her eyes were dark as raisins

Her hair was black as coal

And she's the finest lady

Where ever I may go



Do you remember Molly

When you gave me your right hand

You swore that if you married

I would be your man



I went to Church on Sunday

I saw her go on by

I knew her love was changing

By the rolling of her eyes
