Oh I went down South
For to see my gal
Polly wolly doodle all the day
My Sal she is
A pretty gal
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day
Fare thee well
Fare thee well
Fare thee well my fairy fay
For I'm goin' to Lou'siana
For to see my Suzy-anna
Singing Polly wolly doodle all the day
Oh my Sal she is
A maiden fair
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day
With curly eyes
And laughing hair
Singin' Polly wolly doodle all the day
Fare thee well
Fare thee well
Fare thee well my fairy fay
For I'm goin' to Lou'siana
For to see my Suzy-anna
Singin' Polly wolly doodle all the day
Behind the barn
Down on my knees
Singin' Polly wolly doodle all the day
I thought I heard
A chicken sneeze
Singin' Polly wolly doodle all the day
Fare thee well
Fare thee well
Fare thee well my fairy fay
For I'm goin' to Lou'siana
For to see my Suzy-anna
Singing Polly wolly doodle all the day
He sneezed so hard with a whooping cough
Sing polly wolly doodle all the day
He sneezed his head and his tail right off
Sing "Polly wolly doodle" all the day
Fare thee well fare thee well
Fare thee well my fairy Fay
For I'm going to Louisiana for to see my Susy Anna
Sing "Polly wolly doodle" all the day
Oh a grass hopper sitting on a rail road track
Sing "Polly wolly doodle" all the day
A pickin' his teeth with a carpet tax
Sing "Polly wolly doodle" all the day
Fare thee well fare thee well
Fare thee well my fairy Fay
For I'm going to Louisiana for to see my Susy Anna
Sing "Polly wolly doodle" all the day
I went to bed
But it was no use
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day
My feet stuck out
Like a chicken roost
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day
Fare thee well
Fare thee well
Fare thee well my fairy fay
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Suzy-anna
Singin' Polly wolly doodle all the day
Fare thee well
Fare thee well
Fare thee well my fairy fay
For I'm going to Lou'siana
For to see my Suzy-anna
Singin' Polly wolly doodle all the day
