These lyrics came from "Songs of American Sailormen" by Joanna Colcord



Oh, round the corner we will go,
Round the corner, Sally!

Oh, round the corner we will go,
Round the corner, Sally!


To Madam Gashee's we all will go,
Round the corner, Sally!

To Madam Gashee's we all will go,
Round the corner, Sally!


The Mademoiselles you all do know,
Round the corner, Sally!

The Mademoiselles you all do know,
Round the corner, Sally!

Oh, I wish I was at Madam Gashee's
Round the corner, Sally!

Oh, I wish I was at Madam Gashee's
Round the corner, Sally!


It's there we'll sit and take our ease,
Round the corner, Sally!

It's there we'll sit and take our ease,
Round the corner, Sally!
