My Atrue love did breathe by the Sally Ann so softly
That while Dwalkin' through town only my heart did Ahear him
In Eviews of the cityA

There Aain't many folks by the A7Sally Ann so pretty
That while Dwalkin' through town many a twisted Afeature
Made a Eterrible Dbeauty

One Athing you must know by the A7Sally Ann directly
Is that the Dpockets don't hold any more sunken Atreasures
After Ebaptism by whiskeyA  
[Verse 4]
But Awhen leavin' the bar by the A7Sally Ann just barely
That old Dangel may allow light from above the Amountain
And Ered brick walls Dblooming
