Lyrics
(Folk song)
Ridin’ in the buggy, Miss Mary Jane, Miss Mary Jane, Miss Mary Jane.
Ridin’ in the buggy, Miss Mary Jane, I’m a long way from home.
Refrain
Who moan for me? Who moan for me?
Who moan for me, my darling, Who moan for me?
2. Sally’s got a house in Baltimore,
In Baltimore, in Baltimore,
Sally’s got a house in Baltimore
And it’s full of chicken pie. Refrain
3. I’ve got a girl in Baltimore,
In Baltimore, in Baltimore,
I’ve got a girl in Baltimore
And she’s sixteen stories high. Refrain
4. Fare you well, my little bitty Ann,
My little bitty Ann, my little bitty Ann,
Fare you well, my little bitty Ann,
For I’m going away. Refrain
