Lyrics
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 "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" "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" Now they hadn't been a-sailing No miles not a great many Before she was delivered Of a beautiful baby "Go and fetch a white napkin For to tie my head easy And throw me quite overboard Both me and my baby" Now see how she tottеrs And see how she tumbles And see how she's rolling All upon thе salt water 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 For she shall have a coffin And the coffin it shall shine yellow And she shall be buried On the banks of green willow
