Polly von — Peter Paul And Mary

Polly Von is kind of a sad song, so beware.

I shall tell of a hunter whos life was undone By the crule hand of evil and the setting of the sun His arrow was loosed and it flew through the dark And his true love was slain as the shaft found its mark

CHORUS:well she'd her apron wrapped about her and he took her for a swan and its oh and alas it was she Polly Von

he ran up beside her and found it was she he turned away his head for he could not bare to see As he lifted her up he found she was dead a fountain of tears for his true love he shed

Chorus

he bore her away to his home by the sea cried father oh father ive murdered poor Polly ive killed my fair love in the flower of her life i had always intended that she'd be my wife

Chorus

He roamed near the place where his true love was slain he wept bitter tears but his cries were all in vain as looked on the lake a swan glided by and the sun slowly sank in the grey of the sky

Chorus

WELL thats the song. hope you like it.
