[verse 1]
my true love she was beautiful
my true love she was fair
her eyes were like the diamonds prized
and golden was her hair
and golden was her hair, me lads
as the big ship left the bay
she said “will you remember me ten thousand miles away?”

[chorus]
and sing blow the winds high-o
a-roving i will go
i’ll stay no more on england’s sh0r- for to hear the music play
for i’m off on the morning train
and i won’t be back again
i’m taking a trip on a government ship
ten thousand miles away

[verse 2]
oh, dark and dismal was the day
when last i saw my meg
she’d a government band around each hand
and another one around her leg
and another one around her leg, me lads
as the big ship sailed away
and i said that i’d be true to her ten thousand miles away

[chorus]
and sing blow the winds high-o
a-roving i will go
i’ll stay no more on england’s sh0r- for to hear the music play
for i’m off on the morning train
and i won’t be back again
i’m taking a trip on a government ship
ten thousand miles away

[verse 3]
oh, the sun may shine through a london fog
and the river run quite clear
oh, the ocean’s brine would turn to wine
and i’ll forget me beer
oh, i’ll forget me beer, me lads
and the landlord’s tab i’ll pay
before i’ll forget my own dear meg ten thousand miles away

[chorus]
so we’ll sing blow the winds high-o
a-roving i will go
i’ll stay no more on england’s sh0r- for to hear the music play
for i’m off on the morning train
and i won’t be back again
i’m taking a trip on a government ship
ten thousand miles away
