Sailor Boy - Cara Dillon[00:00:00]
Lyrics by:Traditional/Sam Lakeman/Cara Dillon[00:00:00]
Composed by:Sam Lakeman/Traditional/Cara Dillon[00:00:01]
It was early early all in the spring[00:00:17]
When my love Willie went to serve the king[00:00:23]
The night being dark and the wind blew high[00:00:29]
Which parted me from my sailor boy[00:00:35]
Oh father father build me a boat[00:00:41]
For on the ocean I mean to float[00:00:48]
To watch the big ships as they pass by[00:00:54]
For I might inquire of my sailor boy[00:00:59]
She had not sailed there for a week or two[00:01:06]
When she spied the captain and all his crew[00:01:12]
Oh captain captain come tell me true[00:01:18]
Does my love Willie sail on board with you[00:01:24]
Oh fair maid fair maid he is not here[00:01:55]
He's lost or drowned that I am afraid[00:02:01]
On yon green island as we passed by[00:02:07]
T'was there we lost our fine sailor boy[00:02:13]
She wrung her hands and she tore her hair[00:02:18]
Just like a lady in deep despair[00:02:25]
She called for paper both pen and ink[00:02:31]
And every line she did drop a tear[00:02:36]
And every word she calls Willie near[00:02:42]
Oh father father dig me a grave[00:02:49]
Go dig it long and go dig it wide[00:02:55]
Place marble stone at my head and feet[00:03:01]
That the world may know that I died in grief[00:03:07]
