Burl Ives - Peter Grey Once on a time there lived a man, His name was Peter Gray; He lived way down in that there town Called Penn-syl-va-ni- a. Chorus: Blow ye winds of morning, Blow ye winds heigh- o, Blow ye winds of morning, Blow, blow, blow. Now Peter fell in love all with A nice young girl, The first two letters of her name Were Lucy, Annie, Pearl. Just as they were gwine to wed Her father did say no; And quin-ci-cont-ly she was sent Beyond the Oh-i-o. When Peter heard his love was lost, He knew not what to say, He'd half a mind to jump into The Susquehan-i-a. But he went traveling to the west For furs and other skins; Till he was caught and scal-pi-ed By blood-i In-ji-ins. When Lucy-Annie heard the news, She straightway took to bed, And never did get up again Until she di-i-ed. You fathers all a warning take, Each one as has a girl; And think upon poor Peter Gray And Lucy, Annie, Pearl.
