Pull Down Below
Trad shanty, edited by Daisy your text here
Sally lives on an old plantation Resp: Pull down below! She’s the prettiest in the nation Resp: Pull down below!
Chorus Oh Marcher Laddie Pull down below Marcher Laddie, Bonnie Laddie Pull down below
For seven years he courted Sally Resp: Pull down below! And all he did was dilly-dally Resp: Pull down below! (Chorus)
He bought no gowns, he bought no laces Resp: Pull down below! Didn’t take her out to fancy places Resp: Pull down below! (Chorus)
Sally Brown she loved him dearly Resp: Pull down below! He had her heart so very nearly Resp: Pull down below! (Chorus)
Sally Brown he wouldn’t marry Resp: Pull down below! And she no longer cares to tarry Resp: Pull down below! (Chorus)
This laddie now he took a notion Resp: Pull down below! To sail away across the ocean Resp: Pull down below! (Chorus x2)
