cara dillon - sailor boy lyrics
it was early, early all in the spring
when my love w+lly went to serve the king
the night being dark and the wind blew high
which parted me from my sailor boy
oh father, father build me a boat
for on the ocean i mean to float
to watch the big ships as they pass by
for i might inquire of my sailor boy
she had not sailed there for a week or two
when she spied the captain and all his crew
o captain, captain come tell me true
does my love w+lly sail on board with you?
o fair maid, fair maid he is not here
he’s lost or drowned that i am afraid
on yon green island as we passed by
‘twas there we lost a fine sailor boy
she wrung her hands and she tore her hair
just like a lady in deep despair
she called for paper, both pen and ink
and every night she did drop a tear
and every word she calls w+lly here
o father, father dig me a grave
go dig it long and go dig it wide
place marble stone on my head and feet
that the world may know that i died in grief
