Oh, have you seen Miss Molly
Her cheeks are rosy red
Her lips are soft as satin
And they taste like gingerbread
Oh-ho-ho-me-oh-my Miss Molly
I'm in love with you
Oh-me-oh-my Miss Molly
Won't you say you love me too
I'll sell my horse and saddle
At drivin' I'll resign
If only Miss Molly
Would say that she'll be mine
Oh-ho-ho-me-oh-my Miss Molly
I'm in love with you
Oh-me-oh-my Miss Molly
Won't you say you love me too
(Instrumental Break)
Now when Miss Molly's smilin'
The Sun is dimmed a spell
But when she laughs her voice is like
A little silver bell
Oh-ho-ho-me-oh-my Miss Molly
I'm in love with you
Oh-me-oh-my Miss Molly
Won't you say you love me too
Now listen here Miss Molly
I told you this before
But even though I told you so
I'll tell you just once more
Oh-ho-ho-me-oh-my Miss Molly
I'm in love with you
Oh-me-oh-my Miss Molly
Won't you say you love me too
