POLLY WOLLY DOODLE

Oh, I went down South
For to see my Sal.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
My Sal, she is a spunky gal.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Fare thee well, fare thee well,
Fare thee well my fairy fay.
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Oh, my Sal, she is a maiden fair.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
With curly eyes and laughing hair,
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Fare thee well, fare thee well,
Fare thee well my fairy fay.
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Behind the barn, down on my knees,
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
I thought I heard a chicken sneeze.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Fare thee well, fare thee well.
Fare thee well my fairy fay.
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

He sneezed so hard with the whooping cough.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
He sneezed his head and tail right off.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Fare thee well, fare thee well,
Fare thee well my fairy fay.
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Oh, a grasshopper sittin' on a railroad track.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
A-pickin' his teeth with a carpet tack.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Fare thee well, fare thee well.
Fare thee well my fairy fay.
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Oh, I went to bed but it wasn't any use.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
My feet stuck out like a chicken roost.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.

Fare thee well, fare thee well.
Fare thee well my fairy fay.
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Susyanna.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
