acapella onion - my jolly sailor bold lyrics
upon one summer′s morning
i carefully did stray
down by the walls of wapping
where i met a sailor g+y
conversing with a young lass
who seemed to be in pain
saying, william, when you go
i fear you’ll never return again
my heart is pierced by cupid
i disdain all glittering gold
there is nothing can console me
but my jolly sailor bold
his hair it hangs in ringlets
his eyes as black as coal
my happiness attend him
wherever he may go
from tower hill to blackwall
i′ll wander, weep and moan
all for my jolly sailor
until he sails home
my heart is pierced by cupid
i disdain all glittering gold
there is nothing can console me
but my jolly sailor bold
my father is a merchant
the truth i now will tell
and in great london city
in opulence doth dwell
his fortune doth exceed
300,000 gold
and he frowns upon his daughter
who loves a sailor bold
a fig for his riches
his merchandise and gold
true love has grafted my heart
give me my sailor bold
my heart is pierced by cupid
i disdain all the glittering gold
there is nothing can console me
but my jolly sailor bold
should he return in poverty
from over the ocean far
to my tender bosom
i’ll press my jolly tar
my sailor is as smiling
as the pleasant month of may
and often we have wandered
through ratcliffe highway
many a pretty blooming
young girl we did behold
reclining on the bosom
of her jolly sailor bold
my heart is pierced by cupid
i disdain all glittering gold
there is nothing can console me
but my jolly sailor bold
my name it is maria
a merchant’s daughter fair
and i have left my parents
and 3000 pounds a year
come all you pretty fair maids
whoever you maybe
who love a jolly sailor
that plows the raging sea
while up aloft in storm
from me his absence mourn
and firmly pray arrive the day
he′s never more to roam
my heart is pierced by cupid
i disdain all glittering gold
there is nothing can console me
but my jolly sailor bold
my heart is pierced by cupid
i disdain all glittering gold
there is nothing can console me
but my jolly sailor bold
