Fine Sally
There was a young lady from London she came
Fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally was her name
And she had more gold than a king could possess
And her wit and her beauty was above all the rest
There was a young doctor and he lived close by
Upon thus young girl he set fast his keen eye
One night as they courted he went to his knee
Saying "Sally fine Sally will you marry me?'
" I don't hate you Billy nor no other man
But to say that I love you is more than I can
Than I can"
Fine Sally got sick and she knew not for why
She sent for the young man to come to her side
Saying "are you the doctor can kill or can cure
Are you the young man who I have denied?"
"Yes I am the doctor can kill or can cure
And I will reward you for what's past and gone"
"Let what's past and gone be forgive and forgot
And spare me a little while on this earth for to live"
"I won't spare you Sally more than you did my heart
But I'll dance on your grave
Yes I'll dance on your grave
And I'll dance on your grave
Yes I'll dance on your grave
When you're laid in the earth"
It's off of her fingers takes diamond rings three
Says "take this and wear this and you'll no more see
Fly to your colours and remember poor me
When you are through dancing on Sally your queen"
There was a young lady from London she came
Fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally was her name
Fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally was her name
Fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally was her name
Fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally fine Sally was her name
