Verse

Fly around my blue-eyed gal

Fly around my daisy

Fly around my blue-eyed gal

You almost drove me crazy

Verse

Once I had a fortune

I laid it in a trunk

Lost it all a-gambling

One night when I got drunk

Verse

Wished I was in the West country

Sittin' in a big armchair

One arm 'round my whiskey barrel

The other 'round my dear

Verse

If I had a scolding wife

Tell you what I'd do

Trade her off for a Barlow knife

And paddle my own canoe

Verse

It's every day and Sunday too

It seems so dark and hazy

I'm thinking about my blue-eyed gal

She's done run me crazy

Verse

If I had no horse at all

I'd be found a-crawlin'

Up and down this rocky road

A-looking for my darling

Verse

Went up on the mountain

To give my horn a blow

Thought I heard somebody say

Yonder comes my beau
