"Handsome Molly" lyrics - STRAWBS
I wish I was in London or some other Seaport Town
I set my foot on a steamboat and I sail the ocean 'round
Sailing the rusty ocean, sailing across the sea
I'd think of handsome Molly wherever I may be.
Her eyes was dark as raven, her hair's as black as coal
Her cheeks shone like lilies wherever I may go
Sailing the rusty ocean, sailing across the sea
I'd think of handsome Molly wherever I may be.
Do you you remember Molly when you gave me your right hand?
You swore that if you married, well I would be your man
Sailing the rusty ocean, sailing across the sea
I'd think of handsome Molly wherever I may be.
I went to church on Sunday, I saw a girl on by
I knew her... was changing by the roving of her eye
Sailing the rusty ocean, sailing across the sea
I'd think of handsome Molly wherever I may be.
I wish I was in London or some other Seaport Town
I set my foot on a steamboat and I sail the ocean 'round
Sailing across the ocean, sailing across the sea
I'd think of handsome Molly wherever I may be.
