Listen to me, Polly, while you can
You're a pretty, Polly, ask any man
Soon you will awake
And you'll want to take the world
That's when I'll lose you
Wide-eyed pretty Polly
Soon you'll be worldly, pretty Polly
For all to see
Youth lasts for a moment
Hold on to that moment
Spend your moment close to me
Don't change, pretty Polly, when you fly
Ride your rainbow, Polly, across the sky
One day you'll be going, I know you'll be going
When the face of love appears
But I would love you, Polly, to stay, pretty Polly
For another hundred years
