roger mcguinn - golden vanity lyrics
c
oh there was a lofty ship and a lofty ship was she
f g
and the name of that ship it was the golden vanity
c am
and she feared she would be taken by the turkish enemy
f g c am
as she sailed on the lowland, lowland low
f g c
as she sailed on the lowland sea
up stepped a little cabin boy, a cabin boy was he
and he said to the captain what will you give to me
if i sneak alongside the turkish enemy
and i sink her in the lowland, lowland low
and i sink her in the lowland sea
oh i will give you silver and i will give you gold
and the hand of my daughter your bonnie bride will be
if you’ll sneak alongside of the turkish enemy
and you’ll sink her in the lowland lowland low
and you’ll sink her in the lowland sea
so he jumped overboard and overboard jumped he
and he swam alongside of the turkish enemy
and with a little drilling tool he boar-ed holes three
and he sank her in the lowland lowland low
he sank her in the lowland sea
then he turned himself around and back again swam he
’til he came to the side of the golden vanity
but the captain would not heed, for his daughter he did
need
and he left him in the lowland lowland low
he left him in the lowland sea
well his shipmates brought him out, but upon the deck
he died
and they wrapped him in his blanket that was so soft
and wide
and they cast him overboard and he drifted with the
tide
and he sank beneath the lowland lowland low
he sank beneath the lowland sea
and he sank beneath the lowland lowland low
he sank beneath the lowland sea
