the mellomen - nellie bly lyrics
[intro]
heigh! nellie ho! nellie, listen, love, to me
i’ll sing for you and play for you a dulcet melody
[verse 1]
nellie bly, nellie bly, bring the broom along
we’ll sweep the kitchen clean, my dear, and have a little song
poke the wood, my lady love, and make the fire burn
and while i take the banjo down, just give de mush a turn
[chorus]
heigh! nelie ho! nellie, listen, love, to me
i’ll sing for you, play for you a dulcet mеlody
heigh! nelie ho! nеllie, listen, love, to me
i’ll sing for you, play for you a dulcet melody
[verse 2]
that nelly bly, she has a voice just like a turtle dove (turtle dove)
i hear it in the meadow and i hear it in the grove
that pretty nelly bly, she has a heart warm as a cup of tea
and bigger than a sweet potato down in tennessee
[chorus]
heigh! nelie ho! nellie, listen, love, to me
i’ll sing for you, play for you a dulcet melody
heigh! nelie ho! nellie, listen, love, to me
i’ll sing for you, play for you a dulcet melody
[verse 3]
now nellie bly, nellie bly, never never sigh
don’t ever bring a teardrop to the corner of your eye
’cause the pie is made pumpkin, the mush is made of corn
and the corn and pumpkin’s plenty lying in the barn
[chorus]
heigh! nelie ho! nellie, listen, love, to me
i’ll sing for you, play for you a dulcet melody
heigh! nelie ho! nellie, listen, love, to me
i’ll sing for you, play for you a dulcet melody
