Texty: The Kingston Trio. Molly Dee.
(John Stewart)
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.
[Chorus:]
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!
[Chorus]
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.
[Chorus]
