shirley collins & dolly collins - a forsaking: our captain cried lyrics

Loading...

our captain cried all hands, away tomorrow
leaving us girls behind in grief and sorrow
“what makes you go abroad, fighting for strangers
when you could stay at home, and free from dangers?”

“i’d roll you in my arms, my dearest jewel
so stay at home with me and don’t be cruel”
she fell up on the floor like one that was dying;
this house was filled with grief, sighing and crying

“you courted me a while just to deceive me
now that you’ve gained my heart you mean to leave me
for there’s no trust in men, not my own brother
so girls if you would love, love one each other”

“the drums are beating loud, the pipes are playing
i must be on my way, no longer staying
dry off those brandy tears and leave off weeping
and happy we shall be at our next meeting”
