top floor taivers - the rocks o' gibraltar lyrics

the night that i was married, my sorrows did begin
i being a widow’s daughter and he a captain’s son
for now he’s gane and left me and ne’er return will he
since the rocks o’ gibraltar have twind my love and me

the night that i was married and in my married bed
there come a young sea captain, and he stood at my bed+head
said “arise, arise, young married man, and come awa’ wi’ me
to the rocks o’ gibraltar, to fight the enemy”

lie still, lie still, young married bridе, lie still and act at ease
for it’s timе to go with this young man wherever that he please
for it’s time to go with this young man wherever that may be
and the rocks o’ gibraltar have twind my love and me

[instrumental]

they built my love a bonny bark, and set it on the main
with four and twenty mariners to row it back again
with four and twenty mariners to row it o’er the sea
and the rocks o’ gibraltar have twind my love and me

said a mother to her daughter, “oh, daughter, don’t complain
“for there’s many a man in ireland to ease ye o’ your pain”
aye there’s many a man in ireland, but there’s nain a match for me
since the rocks o’ gibraltar have twind my love and me
i’ll put nae sack upon my back, nor comb through my hair
it’s neither coal nor candlelight shinin’ my bower mair
and i’ll no’ wed wi’ yon young man, whoever that he be
since the rocks o’ gibraltar have twind my love and me
