lyrics

Once on a time there lived a man, his name was Peter Gray,
He lived way down in that ’ere town called Penn-syl-va-ni-a.

Now Peter fell in love all with a nice young girl,
The first three letters of her name were Lucy Annie Pearl.


Blow, ye winds of morning, blow, ye winds heigh-ho,
Blow, ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.

Just as they were about to wed her father did say no,
And consequently, she was sent beyond the Oh-i-o.

When Peter heard his love was lost, he knew not what to say,
He'd half a mind to jump into the Susquehan-ni-a.

Blow, ye winds of morning, blow, ye winds heigh-ho,
Blow, ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.

Now Peter went away out West to seek his fortune,
But he was caught and scalped by a bloody Indian.

When Lucy heard of this bad news, she knew not what to say.
She wept and wept and wiped her poor sweet life away.

Blow, ye winds of morning, blow, ye winds heigh-ho,
Blow, ye winds of morning, blow, blow, blow.
