Jack-A-Roe - This is the Kit[00:00:00]
Written by:Traditional[00:00:01]
There was a wealthy merchant[00:00:08]
In London he did dwell[00:00:10]
He had a beautiful daughter[00:00:14]
The truth to you we'll tell[00:00:17]
Oh the truth to you we'll tell[00:00:22]
She had sweethearts a plenty[00:00:29]
And men of high degree[00:00:32]
But none but jack the sailor[00:00:36]
Her true love ever be[00:00:38]
Oh her true love ever be[00:00:43]
Jackie's gone a sailing[00:00:51]
With trouble on his mind[00:00:53]
He's left his native country[00:00:57]
And his darling girl behind[00:01:00]
Oh his darling girl behind[00:01:04]
She went down to a tailor shop[00:01:12]
And dressed in man's array[00:01:14]
She climbed on board a vessel to convey herself away[00:01:19]
Oh convey herself away[00:01:26]
Before you get on board sir[00:01:33]
Your name we'd like to know[00:01:36]
She smiled on her countenance[00:01:40]
They called me jack a roe[00:01:42]
Oh they called me jack a roe[00:01:47]
I see your waist is slender[00:02:13]
Your fingers they are small[00:02:16]
Your cheeks too red and rosy[00:02:20]
To face the cannonball[00:02:22]
Oh to face the cannonball[00:02:27]
I know my waist's to slender[00:02:35]
My fingers they are small[00:02:37]
But it would not make me tremble[00:02:41]
To see ten thousand fall[00:02:44]
Oh to see ten thousand fall[00:02:48]
The war soon being over she went and looked around[00:02:56]
Among the dead and wounded her darling boy she found[00:03:02]
Oh her darling boy she found[00:03:10]
She picked him up on in her arms and carried him[00:03:17]
To the town[00:03:21]
She sent for a physician to quickly heal his wounds[00:03:24]
Oh to quickly heal his wounds[00:03:31]
This couple they got married so well they did agree[00:03:57]
This couple they got married so why not you and me[00:04:04]
Oh why not you and me[00:04:11]
