Out From The Valleys & Into The Stars

I'd had enough of the valley

So I took a walk down to Vincent Street

Thinking there might be somebody

Hanging round there that I'd like to meet

But I walked 'round there for hours

And there was no one that I could see

No one but three cut of flowers

Oh, singing 'oh, pretty darling, move on, pretty darling'

So I went back to the valley and there was still nothing there but weeds

And my girl long, tall Sally just said 'baby, it's so free with me'

So I sailed out to the island

Laid on my back staring at the stars

As they all danced high above me

Oh, singing 'Oh pretty darling. Go home, pretty darling'

So I sailed back from the island now stood there now just skin and bones hoping to say 'Hey, Sally come, on then. Let's get rid of gold"

But Sally'd gone and got married

So I sat up in that house alone

Looking back out across the valley

And singing 'oh pretty darling. Where'd you run, pretty darling?'

oh pretty darling

oh pretty darling
