The Ship That Never Returned - Sara & Maybelle Carter[00:00:00]
On a summer's day when the wave was rippled[00:00:11]
By the softest gentlest breeze [00:00:15]
Did a ship set sail with a cargo laden[00:00:20]
For a port beyond the seas [00:00:24]
There were sweet farewells there were loving signals[00:00:30]
Till a form was yet discerned;[00:00:35]
Though they knew it not 'twas a solemn parting[00:00:39]
For the ship that never returned [00:00:44]
Did she never return[00:00:48]
No she never returned[00:00:50]
Her fate is yet unlearned[00:00:53]
Though for years and years[00:00:57]
There were fond hearts watching[00:00:59]
For the ship that never returned [00:01:02]
"Only one more trip " said a gallant seaman [00:01:26]
As he kissed his weeping wife [00:01:30]
Only one more bag of the golden treasure[00:01:35]
And 'twill last us all through life [00:01:39]
Then I'll spend my days in my cosy cottage[00:01:45]
And enjoy the rest I've earned;[00:01:50]
But alas poor man For he sail'd commander[00:01:54]
On the ship that never returned [00:01:59]
Did she ever return[00:02:03]
No she never returned [00:02:05]
Her fate is yet unlearned [00:02:08]
Though for years and years[00:02:12]
There were fond hearts watching[00:02:14]
For the ship that never returned[00:02:17]
