Lyrics

Well, I went down south to see my Suzy
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day
Her laughing eyes make me feel kinda woozy
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day

I stopped at the forest to pick some flowers
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day
The bees were so mad, they chased me for hours
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day

Fare thee well, fare thee well
Fare thee well, my fairy fay
For I'm off to Louisiana
To see my Suzy-Anna
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day

In a boat on the river, I started rowing
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day
Raised up the sail when the wind started blowing
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day

I jumped on a bus to get to the city
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day
Waiting at the last stop, Suzy looked pretty
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day

Fare thee well, fare thee well
Fare thee well, my fairy fay
For I'm off to Louisiana
To see my Suzy-Anna
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day

Fare thee well, fare thee well
Fare thee well, my fairy fay
For I'm off to Louisiana
To see my Suzy-Anna
Singing Polly Wolly Doodle all day

We sang Polly Wolly Doodle all day
