Molly Dee

(album: Here We Go Again! - 1959)

I got a gal in Tennessee, sweetest little gal that you ever did see
Works all day in a cotton mill
Makes her gin in a bathtub still

Here we go, 'round again
Singing a song about Molly Dee
Far away, I know not where she's the girl who waits for me

My true love's in Memphis town
Pretty little thing names Sally Brown
Travels around on a riverboat
Shares her room with a billy goat

Here we go, 'round again
Singing a song about Molly Dee
Far away, I know not where she's the girl who waits for me

Spending my money, gonna drink it away
I'll start saving on another day
Wasting my time in the Silver Dollar
Pinch them girls just to hear them hollar

Here we go, 'round again
Singing a song about Molly Dee
Far away, I know not where she's the girl who waits for me
