[Verse 1]

“Oh Polly love, oh Polly, the rout has now begun,
G D C G D Em

And we must go a-marching to the beating of the drum.

Go dress yourself all in your best and come along with me;
Em G Em D C Em

I'll take you to the war, me love, in High Germany.”

“Oh Willy love, oh Willy, come list what I do say,
G D C G D Em

My feet they are so tender, I cannot march away.

And besides, my dearest Willy, I am with child by thee,
Em G Em D C Em

Not fitted for the war, me love, in High Germany.”
