Rolling Sea |
Don’t ya see the ships a’comin? |
Don’t ya see them in full sail? |
Don’t ya see the ships a’comin |
With their prizes at their tail? |
Oh, my little rolling sailor |
Oh, my little rolling he |
How I love my rolling sailor |
When he’s on a rollin' sea |
(When he’s on a rollin', rollin,' |
When he’s on a rollin' sea.) |
Sailors they get all the money |
Soldiers they get none but brass |
How I love my rolling sailor |
Soldiers they can kiss my--- |
Oh, my little rolling sailor |
Oh, my little rolling he |
How I love my rolling sailor |
When he’s on the rolling sea |
(When he’s on a rollin', rollin,' |
When he’s on a rollin' sea.) |
How can I be blithe and merry |
With my true love far from me? |
All those pretty little sailors |
They’ve been pressed and ta’en to sea |
Oh, my little rolling sailor |
Oh, my little rolling he |
How I love my rolling sailor |
When he’s on the rolling sea |
(When he’s on a rollin', rollin,' |
When he’s on a rollin' sea.) |
How I wish the press were over |
And the wars were at an end |
Then every sailor laddie |
Would be happy with his friend |
Oh, my little rolling sailor |
Oh, my little rolling he |
How I love my rolling sailor |
When he’s on the rolling sea |
(When he’s on a rollin', rollin,' |
When he’s on a rollin' sea.) |
When the wars they are all over |
Peace and plenty come again |
E’ry bonny sailor laddie |
Will come sailing on the main |
Oh, my little rolling sailor |
Oh, my little rolling he |
How I love my rolling sailor |
When he’s on the rolling sea |
(When he’s on a rollin', rollin,' |
When he’s on a rollin' sea.) |
Hope the wars will soon be over |
And the sailors, once come home |
Every lass will get a laddie |
She won’t have to sleep alone |
Oh, my little, oh sailor |
Oh, my little rolling he |
How I love my rolling sailor |
When he’s on the rolling sea |
(When he’s on a rollin', rollin,' |
When he’s on a rollin' sea.) |
