chad mitchell trio - waves on the sea lyrics
chorus:
oh, the waves on the sea, how they roll.
and those chilly winds, how they do blow.
my own true love went down in the deep
and the ship never got to the sh-r-.
[chorus]
well the first on the deck
was the captain of the ship,
and a rough-looking sailor was he.
he said, “i care no more
for my wife and my child
than i do for the fish in the sea.”
[chorus]
well the second on board
was a true man of god,
yes, a right reverend deacon was he.
said: “i’ll forsake all the faith
that i’ve got in my soul
to be saved from that ragin’ sea.”
[chorus]
well the third on deck
was my own true love
and a fine lookin’ woman was she.
and i heard her cry
as the waves swept her by,
“please save my baby and me.”
[chorus]
my own true love went down in the deep,
and the ship never got to the sh-r-.
