Oh, I met this fair maiden while traveling one day.
Her name was Polly, or so she did say.
My horses ain't hungry, they won't eat your pay.
It's very well, Polly, I'm going on my way.
Oh, your parents don't like me, they say I'm too poor.
They say I'm not worthy to enter your dome.
I know they don't like you, but do you care?
I know I'm your Polly, now I'm your dear.
Oh, I know you're my Polly, but what can I say?
I'm fine home behind me, we'll speed on our way.
Oh, yes, I'll go with you, for I am told.
It's your love that I'm longing, not silver or gold.
Oh, we'll load our block, we'll drive till we come.
There's some little cabin, we'll call that our home.
Oh, I hate to leave Mama, she treats me so kind.
But I'll do as I promise, that's how I am I.
Oh, it's goodbye, dear Mama, I'm leaving today.
Tomorrow I'll drive a little farther, I'll speed on my way.
Oh, my horses ain't hungry, they won't eat your cake.
I'll drive on, toes and feet on my way.
