Lyrics:
(She had a dark and a-rovin' eye-uh-eye And her hair hung down in ringlets She was a nice girl, a proper girl But one of the rovin' kind.) As I cruised out one evening upon a night's career I spied a lofty clipper ship and to her I did steer I heisted out my signals which she so quickly knew And when she saw my bunting fly she immediately hove to, woo-woo. (She had a dark and a-rovin' eye-uh-eye And her hair hung down in ringlets She was a nice girl, a proper girl But one of the rovin' kind.) I took her for some fish and chips and treated her so fine And hardly did I realize she was the rovin' kind I kissed her lips, I missed her lips and found to my surprise She was nothin' but a pirate ship rigged up in a disguuise. (She had a dark and a-rovin' eye-eye-eye) And her hair hung down in ringlets She was a nice girl, a proper girl But one of the rovin' kind.) So, come all ye good sailor men who sail the wintry sea And come, all ye apprentice lads, a warnin' take from me Beware of lofty clipper ships, they'll be the ruin of you For 'twas there she made me walk the plank and pushed me under too. (She had a dark and a-rovin' eye-uh-eye And her hair hung down in ring-a-lets) She was a nice girl, a proper girl But one of the rovin' kind. (She was a nice girl, a proper girl) But one of the rovin' kind, (yo-ho!...)
