Thread Name: Lyr Add: More verses to Sally, My Dear
Subject: More verses to Sally, My Dear
The song Sally, My Dear is in the DT, but I see that the text given doesn't include a number of verses that I know, which are as follows:

Oh, Sally, my dear, I wish I could wed you!
Oh, Sally, my dear, I wish I could wed you!
She laughed and replied, "Why, you silly blockhead, you!"
Sing whack fol ge-diggy di-do, sing whack! fol the day!

Oh, Sally, my dear, It's you I'd be mating!
Oh, Sally, my dear, It's you I'd be mating!
She laughed and replied, "Well then, why are you waiting?"
CHORUS

Oh, Sally, my dear, it's you I'd be kissin'!
Oh, Sally, my dear, it's you I'd be kissin'!
She laughed and replied, "You don't know what you're missin'!"
CHORUS

If the girls was all panthers, and raced 'round the moutain (2X)
We'd see all of the boys takin' guns to go hunt 'em.
CHORUS

If the girls was all blackbirds, or the girls was all thrushes (2X)
How many of the boys would go beatin' the bushes.
CHORUS

Oh, Sally, my dear, I wish I could wed you! (2X)
"Oh, sir, if you did, why, you'd say I misled you!"
CHORUS
