My Jolly Sailor Bold |
| Upon one summer's morning, I carefully did stray |
| Down by the Walls of Wapping, where I met a sailor gay |
| Conversing with a young lass, who seemed to be in pain |
| Saying William, when you go, I fear you'll ne'er return again |
| My heart is pierced by Cupid |
| I disdain all glittering gold |
| There is nothing can console me |
| But my jolly sailor bold |
| His hair it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal |
| My happiness attend him wherever he may go |
| From Tower Hill to Blackwall, I'll wander, weep and moan |
| All for my jolly sailor, until he sails home |
| My heart is pierced by Cupid |
| I disdain all glittering gold |
| There is nothing can console me |
| But my jolly sailor bold |
| My name is Maria, a merchant's daughter fair |
| And I have left my parents and three thousand pounds a year |
| Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be |
| Who love a jolly sailor that ploughs the raging sea |
| While up aloft in storm, from me his absence mourn |
| And firmly pray, arrive the day, he's never more to roam |
| My heart is pierced by Cupid |
| I disdain all glittering gold |
| There is nothing can console me |
| But my jolly sailor bold |
| My heart is pierced by Cupid |
| I disdain all glittering gold |
| There is nothing can console me |
| But my jolly sailor bold |
