Tekst Utworu

[Verse 1]
There used to be a gambler who courted all around
There used to be a gambler who courted all around
He courted pretty Polly, such beauty'd never been found
[Verse 2]
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, come go along with me
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, come go along with me
Before we get married, some pleasures to see
[Verse 3]
She jumped up behind him and away they did go
She jumped up behind him and away they did go
Down into the valley that was far below
[Verse 4]
They went a little further, and what did they spy
They went a little further, and what did they spy
But a newly-dug grave with a spade lying by
[Verse 5]
Oh Willy, hey Willy, I'm afraid of your ways
Oh Willy, hey Willy, I'm afraid of your ways
I'm afraid you will leave my poor body astray
[Verse 6]
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you've guessed it just right
Pretty Polly, pretty Polly, you've guessed it just right
I've dug on your grave the better part of last night
[Verse 7]
Then he stabbed her in the heart 'til her heart's blood did flow
He stabbed her in the heart 'til her heart's blood did flow
Down into the grave pretty Polly did go
[Verse 8]
Now a debt to the devil that Willy must pay
A debt to the devil that Willy must pay
For killing pretty Polly and running away
