the war began and henry left his farm
left his darling molly with a baby in her arms
now the war was over
and their life could begin
molly saw her darling standing at the door again
it’s so nice to hear your voice again molly
so nice to feel your arms around me molly
oh how happy i’d be if i only could see you
sweet sweet molly
molly molly
please don’t cry
please don’t cry
maybe i should have written
to let you know ahead of time
but i was afraid you’d worry
if you knew that i’d gone blind
do i hear you crying molly
please don’t cry you silly thing
see what you’ve done
you’ve even brought a tear to my eye
oh how happy i’d be if i only could see you
sweet sweet molly
molly molly
please don’t cry
please don’t cry
where’s my son
what does he look like molly
everyone says he took after me
lord i wish i could see
come here little man
don’t be afraid
i’m your daddy
guess he’ll get used to me in time
won’t he molly
it’s so nice to hear your voice again molly
so nice to feel your arms around me molly
oh how happy i’d be if i only could see you
sweet sweet molly
molly molly
please don’t cry
molly molly
please don’t cry
molly molly
please don’t cry
molly molly
