Molly



The war began and Henry left his farm

Left his darling Molly with a baby in her arms

Now the war was over and their life could begin

Molly saw her darling standing at the door again



It’s so nice to hear your voice again Molly

So nice to feel your arms around me Molly

Oh how happy I’d be if I only could see you

Sweet, sweet Molly (Molly, Molly) please don’t cry



Maybe I should have written to let you know ahead of time

But I was afraid that you would worry if you knew that I’d gone blind

Do I hear you crying, Molly please don’t cry

You silly thing, see what you’ve done

You’ve even brought a tear to my eye



Oh how happy I’d be if I only could see you

Sweet, sweet Molly (Molly, Molly) please don’t cry



Where’s my son what does he look like, Molly

Every one says he took after me

Lord, I wish I could see

Come here little man,

Don’t be afraid

I’m your daddy

Guess he’ll get used to me in time, won’t he Molly



It’s so nice to hear your voice again, Molly

So nice to feel your arms around me, Molly

Oh how happy I’d be if I only could see you

Sweet, sweet Molly please don’t cry
