Lyrics for "Sally Brown" print close
From the CD - Guano and NItrates
By The Valparaiso Men's Chorus

Sally Brown  (sing response in each verse) 

Oh, Sally Brown, of New York City

Way, hay roll and go

Oh Sally Brown you're very pretty

Spend my money on Sally Brown
Oh Sally Brown's a bright mulatto...
She drinks Rum and chews tobacco...

Oh! Sally Brown's a Creole lady...
She's the mother of a yellow baby...

Seven long years I courted Sally...
Sweetest girl in all the valley...

Seven long years and she wouldn't marry...
And I no longer cared to tarry...

So I courted Sal her only daughter...
For her I sail upon the water...


Sally's teeth are white and pearly...
Her eyes are blue her hair is curly...

Now my troubles now are over...
Sally's married to a dirty soldier...
