I'm always lighthearted and easy
Not a care in this world have I
Because I am loved by an Ollie
And I couldn't forget if I tried
She lives far away over the mountains
Where the little birds sing on the trees
And the cabin's all covered with ivy
And the Ollie is waiting for me
It's over, it's over the mountains
Where the little birds sing on the trees
And the cabin's all covered with ivy
And the Ollie is waiting for me
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-dee-do-le-dee
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-dee-do-le-dee
The day I bid goodbye to Ollie
That day I will never forget
For the tears bubbled up from their slumber
I fancy I see them yet
They look like the pearls in the ocean
As she wept her tale of love
And she said my dear boy, don't forget me
Til we meet here again or above
It's over, it's over the mountains
Where the little birds sing on the trees
And the cabin's all covered with ivy
And the Ollie is waiting for me
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-dee-do-le-dee
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-da-lee
Yo-de-la-hee-dee-do-le-dee
