GUEST,WMRambler Lyr Req:Pretty Polly (from The Dillards) (8) Lyr Req: Dillards - Pretty Polly 27 Jun 15

Does anyone happen to know the lyrics to the version of Pretty Polly done by the Dillards on their "Live... Almost!!!" album? Most of the lyrics I've found contain a majority of the song, but I get confused on the first and last verse.

It sounds like (to me):

    First Verse:
       "Willie lived in london, a city built in town (x2)
         and met a beautiful lady, her beauty never been found"

    Last Verse:
       "He threw a little dirt over her and turned to go home (x2)
         leaving nothing behind but the wilds birds to roam"


Any help would be greatly appreciated.
