Bob Dylan - Handsome Molly





 

Artist: Bob Dylan
Album: Bob Dylan Live 1961-2000
Title: Handsome Molly

(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.
