The Roving Kind - The Weavers/Helen Carter[00:00:00]

Written by：Cavanaugh/Stanton[00:00:02]

As I cruised out one evening[00:00:05]

Upon a night's career[00:00:07]

I spied a lofty clipper ship[00:00:10]

And to her I did steer[00:00:12]

I heisted out my signals[00:00:14]

Which she so quickly knew[00:00:17]

And when she saw my bunting fly[00:00:19]

She immediately hove to woo woo[00:00:22]

She had a dark and rovin' eye[00:00:25]

And her hair hung down in ringlets[00:00:29]

She was a nice girl a proper girl but[00:00:32]

One of the rovin' kind[00:00:37]

Oh pardon me she says to me[00:00:40]

For being out so late[00:00:42]

But if my parents heard of this[00:00:44]

All sad would be my fate[00:00:46]

My father is in politics[00:00:49]

A good and righteous man[00:00:51]

My mother is an acrobat[00:00:53]

I do the best I can[00:00:56]

She had a dark and rovin' eye[00:01:00]

And her hair hung down in ringlets[00:01:03]

She was a nice girl a proper girl but[00:01:07]

One of the rovin' kind[00:01:11]

I took her for some fish and chips[00:01:29]

And treated her so fine[00:01:31]

And hardly did I realize[00:01:33]

She was the rovin' kind[00:01:35]

I kissed her lips I missed her lips[00:01:38]

And found to my surprise[00:01:40]

She was nothin' but a pirate ship[00:01:42]

Rigged up in a disguise[00:01:45]

She had a dark and rovin' eye[00:01:49]

And her hair hung down in ringlets[00:01:53]

She was a nice girl a proper girl but[00:01:56]

One of the rovin' kind[00:02:01]

So come all you good sailor men[00:02:03]

Who sail the wintry sea[00:02:06]

And come all you apprentice lads[00:02:08]

A warnin' take from me[00:02:11]

Beware of lofty clipper ships[00:02:13]

They'll be the ruin of you[00:02:15]

For 'twas there she made me walk the plank[00:02:17]

And pushed me under too[00:02:20]

She had a dark and rovin' eye[00:02:24]

And her hair hung down in ringlets[00:02:27]

She was a nice girl a proper girl but[00:02:31]

One of the rovin' kind[00:02:35]
