Lyrics:
Oh well there wouldn't be a sailor lad a sailin'on the main To gain the good will of his captain'good name He came ashore on evening for to be And that was the beginning of my own true love and me Well I asked her for a candle for tolight me up to bed And likewise for a handkerchief to tie around me head She tended to me needs like a young maid ought to be So then I say to her, "now won't you leap in with me too Well she jumped into bed, making no alarm Thinking a young sailor lad could to her no harm Well I hugged her and kissed her the whole night long Till she wished the short night had been nine years long Well early the next morning the sailor lad arose And into Mary's apron threw a handful of gold Saying, "take this to me daer for the mischief that I've done For tonight I faer I've left you with a daughter or a son Well, if it be a girl child, send her out to nurse With gold in her pocket and with silver in her purse And if it be a boy child he'll wear the jacket blue And go climbing up the rigging like his daddy used to do
