Sally My Dear

Pete Seeger

Oh Sally, my dear, I wish I could wed you
Oh Sally, my dear, I wish I could wed you
She laughed and replied, "Why
You silly blockhead"
Singing falla dingy-di do, whack fall de day

Oh, Sally, my dear
 it's you I'd be kissing
Oh,  Sally, my dear
 it's you I'd be kissing
She laughed and replied, said, "You
Don't know what you're missing"
Singing fall dingy di do whack fall de day

If the girls were all blackbirds or
The girls were all thrushes
If the girls were all blackbirds or
The girls were all thrushes
We'd see all of the boys
Go to beating the bushes
Singing fall dingy di do whack fall de day?

If the girls were all panthers
And raced 'round the mountain
If the girls were all panthers
And raced 'round the mountain
How many of the men would take
Guns to go hunt 'em
Singing fall dingy di do whack fall de day?

Oh Sally, my dear, I wish I could wed you
Oh Sally, my dear, I wish I could wed you
Oh, sir, if you did, you'd say I misled you
Singing fall dingy di do whack fall de day

If all of the girls were
Like fish in the ocean
If all of the girls were
Like fish in the ocean and if I were a wave
I would raise a commotion
Singing fall dingy di do whack fall de day
