There Was A Wealthy Merchant - Steeleye Span[00:00:00]

There was a wealthy merchant[00:00:27]

In London he did dwell[00:00:30]

He had a beautiful daughter[00:00:36]

The truth to you I'll tell[00:00:39]

Oh the truth to you I'll tell[00:00:44]

She had sweethearts a-plenty[00:00:54]

And men of high degree[00:00:57]

But none but Jack the sailor[00:01:02]

Her true love ere could be[00:01:06]

Oh her true love ere could be[00:01:11]

Jack he's gone a-sailing[00:01:21]

With trouble on his mind[00:01:24]

He's left his king and his country[00:01:29]

And his darling girl behind[00:01:32]

Oh his darling girl behind[00:01:37]

She went down to a tailor's shop[00:02:14]

And dressed in men's array[00:02:17]

She's signed a bill of passage[00:02:22]

To convey herself away[00:02:26]

Oh convey herself away[00:02:29]

Before you get on board Sir[00:02:37]

Your name we'd like to know[00:02:40]

She smiled all in her countenance[00:02:45]

They call me Jack-a-Roe[00:02:49]

Oh they call me Jack-a-Roe[00:02:53]

I see your waist is slender[00:03:04]

Your fingers they are small[00:03:07]

Your cheeks to red and rosy[00:03:10]

To face the cannonball[00:03:14]

I know my waist is slender[00:03:14]

And my fingers they are small[00:03:21]

But it would not make me tremble[00:03:23]

To see ten thousand fall[00:03:27]

To see them fall[00:03:33]

The war soon being over[00:03:41]

She went and looked around[00:03:44]

Among the dead and wounded[00:03:49]

Her darling boy she found[00:03:52]

Oh her darling boy she found[00:03:57]

She picked him up all in her arms[00:04:04]

And carried him to the town[00:04:08]

She sent for a physician[00:04:12]

Who quickly healed his wounds[00:04:16]

Oh who quickly healed his wounds[00:04:21]

This couple they got married[00:04:30]

So well they did agree[00:04:34]

This couple they got married[00:04:39]

So why not you and me [00:04:42]

Oh why not you and me[00:04:48]
