Loading...

[verse 1]
o it’s of a sea+captain
down by the seaside+o
and he’s courted a young lady
and he’s got her by child

[verse 2]
“go and fetch your father’s gold
and some of your mother’s money
and go all across the ocean
all along with young johnny”
[verse 3]
“now i’ve got my father’s gold
and some of my mother’s money
and i’ll go all across the ocean
all along with young johnny”

[verse 4]
now they hadn’t been a+sailing
no miles not a great many
before she was delivered
of a beautiful baby

[verse 5]
“go and fetch a white napkin
for to tie my head easy
and throw me quite overboard
both me and my baby”

[verse 6]
now see how she tottеrs
and see how she tumbles
and see how she’s rolling
all upon thе salt water

[verse 7]
go fetch me a longboat
for to row my lover back again
for to row my lover back again
both for her and her baby
[verse 8]
for she shall have a coffin
and the coffin it shall shine yellow
and she shall be buried
on the banks of green willow
