THE WAR BEGAN AND HENRY LEFT HIS FARM
LEFT HIS DARLING MOLLY WITH A BABY IN HER ARMS
NOW THE WAR WAS OVER AND THEIR LIFE COULD BEGIN
MOLLY SAW HER DARLING STANDING AT THE DOOR AGAIN
IT'S SO NICE TO HEAR YOUR VOICE AGAIN MOLLY
SO NICE TO FEEL YOUR ARMS AROUND ME MOLLY
OH HOW HAPPY I'D BE IF I ONLY COULD SEE

YOU SWEET SWEET MOLLY (MOLLY, MOLLY) PLEASE DON'T CRY
MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE WRITTEN TO LET YOU KNOW AHEAD OF TIME
BUT I WAS AFRAID THAT YOU'D WORRY IF YOU KNEW THAT I'D GONE BLIND
DO I HEAR YOU CRYING MOLLY? PLEASE DON'T CRY

YOU'VE EVEN BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE
OH HOW HAPPY I'D BE IF I ONLY COULD SEE
YOU SWEET SWEET MOLLY (MOLLY, MOLLY), PLEASE DON'T CRY
WHERE'S MY SON? WHAT DOES HE LOOK LIKE MOLLY?
EVERYONE SAYS HE TOOK AFTER ME? LORD I WISH I COULD SEE
COME HERE LITTLE MAN DON'T BE AFRAID
I'M YOUR DADDY, GUESS YOU'LL GET USED TO ME IN TIME
WON'T HE MOLLY?
IT'S SO NICE TO HEAR YOUR VOICE AGAIN MOLLY
SO NICE TO FEEL YOUR ARMS AROUND ME MOLLY
OH HOW HAPPY I'D BE IF I ONLY COULD SEE
YOU SWEET SWEET MOLLY (MOLLY MOLLY) PLEASE DON'T CRY
