Sally Free and Easy by Pentangle Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
Took a sailor's lovin'
For a nursery game
[Verse 2]
Though the heart that she gave me
Was not made of stone
Though the heart that she gave me
Was not made of stone
It was sweet and hollow
Like a honeycomb
[Verse 3]
Think I'll wait 'til the sunset
See the ensign down
Think I'll wait 'til the sunset
See the ensign down
Then I'll take the tideway
To my buryin' ground
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
When my body's landed
Hope she dies of shame
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
Took a sailor's lovin'
For a nursery game
[Verse 2]
Though the heart that she gave me
Was not made of stone
Though the heart that she gave me
Was not made of stone
It was sweet and hollow
Like a honeycomb
[Verse 3]
Think I'll wait 'til the sunset
See the ensign down
Think I'll wait 'til the sunset
See the ensign down
Then I'll take the tideway
To my buryin' ground
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
Sally, free and easy
That should be her name
When my body's landed
Hope she dies of shame
