A Sailor's Life - Fairport Convention (公平港口大会)[00:00:00]

A sailor's life it is a merry life[00:00:15]

He robs young girls of their heart's delight[00:00:28]

Leaving them behind to weep and mourn[00:00:40]

They never know when they will return[00:00:52]

"Well there's four and twenty all in a row[00:01:08]

My true love he makes the finest show[00:01:18]

He's proper tall genteel withal[00:01:29]

And if I don't have him I'll have none at all"[00:01:42]

"Oh father build for me a bonny boat[00:01:58]

That on the wide ocean I may float[00:02:08]

And every Queen's ship that we pass by[00:02:22]

There I'll inquire for my sailor boy"[00:02:34]

They had not sailed long upon the deep[00:03:28]

When a Queen's ship they chanced to meet[00:03:39]

"You sailors all pray tell me true[00:03:52]

Does my sweet William sail among your crew?"[00:04:02]

"Oh no fair maiden he is not here[00:04:14]

For he's been drownded we greatly fear[00:04:25]

On yon green island as we passed it by[00:04:39]

There we lost sight of your sailing boy"[00:04:50]

Well she rung her hands and she tore her hair[00:05:02]

She was like a young girl in great despair[00:05:13]

And her little boat against a rock did run[00:05:27]

"How can I live now? My sweet William is gone[00:05:43]
