Madeleine-Mary |
| Sing a song of madeleine-mary |
| A tune that all can carry |
| Burly says if we don’t sing |
| Then we won’t have anything |
| All the boys on ship set sail |
| And the mate was madeleine-mary |
| When her eyes did fill with tears |
| It was extraordinary |
| It was extraordinary |
| For we none of us could see it |
| For she kept herself kept below |
| And all her feelings private |
| Sing a song of madeleine-mary |
| A tune that all can carry |
| Burly says if we don’t sing |
| Then we won’t have anything |
| None of us could get a glimpse |
| But all of us did want it |
| At night, above our sleeping heads |
| Our sleeping dreams were haunted |
| So now my kids you’d like to hear |
| Of one who reached and got her |
| Well, if there was, well, i think |
| He sleeps beneath the water |
| Sing a song of madeleine-mary |
| A tune that all can carry |
| Burly says if we don’t sing |
| Then we won’t have anything |
