Well met well met said an old true love[00:00:00]
I just returned from the salt salt sea[00:00:11]
And its all for the love of thee[00:00:17]
Come in come in my own true love[00:00:21]
And have a seat by me[00:00:25]
Its been three fourths of a long long year[00:00:26]
Since together we have been[00:00:29]
I can't come in and I can't sit down[00:00:34]
For I've only a moments time[00:00:37]
They say you're married to a house carpenter[00:00:40]
And your heart will never be mine[00:00:41]
I could've married the kings daughter fair[00:00:45]
And she would've married me[00:00:49]
But I have forsaken her crowns of gold[00:00:54]
And it's all for the love of thee[00:00:59]
Now will you forsake your house carpenter[00:01:01]
And come along with me[00:01:09]
I'll take you where the grass grows green[00:01:14]
On the banks of the deep blue sea[00:01:20]
Then she picked up her darling little babe[00:01:24]
And kisses she gave it three[00:01:29]
Saying stay right here you darling little babe[00:01:33]
And keep your pop company[00:01:37]
They had not been on the ship two weeks[00:01:45]
I'm sure it was not three[00:01:50]
'Til this true love began to weep and to mourn[00:01:55]
And she wept most bitterly[00:02:01]
Saying are you weeping for my silver and my gold[00:02:03]
Saying are you weeeping for my store[00:02:06]
Or are you weeping for your house carpenter[00:02:09]
Whose face you'll never see no more[00:02:13]
A curse a curse to the sailor she cried[00:02:15]
A curse a curse she swore[00:02:16]
You robbed me of the darling little babe[00:02:17]
That I shall never see no more[00:02:18]
They had not been on the ship three weeks[00:02:24]
I'm sure it was not four[00:02:29]
When there came a leak in the bottom of the ship[00:02:34]
And sank them for to rise no more[00:02:39]
