Sinking in the Lonesome Sea |
There was a little ship, and she sailed upon the sea |
The name of the ship was the Golden Vanity |
She sailed upon the low, the lonesome low |
She sailed upon the lonesome sea |
She had not been out many more weeks than three |
When she was overtaken by the Turkish Revelry |
Sailing on the low, the lonesome low |
She sailed upon the lonesome sea |
Then up spoke a little cabin boy |
Saying «What will you give me if I will them destroy?» |
If I sink her in the low, lonesome low |
Sink her in the lonesome sea |
«The man who them destroys», the captain then replied |
«It's five thousand pounds and my daughter for your bride» |
If you sink them in the low, lonesome low |
Sink them in the lonesome sea |
The boy smote his breast, and down jumped he |
He swam until he came to the Turkish Revelry |
Sailing on the low, lonesome low |
Sailing on the lonesome sea |
He had a little tool, made for the use |
He bored nine holes in her hull all at once |
He sank her in the low, lonesome low |
He sank her in the lonesome ocean |
He swam back to the ship, he beat upon the side |
Crying «Captain pick me up, I’m waving with the tide» |
«I'm sinking in the low, lonesome low |
Sinking in the lonesome sea» |
«I will not pick you up», the Captain then replied |
«I'll shoot you, I’ll drown you, I’ll sink you in the tide |
I’ll sink you in the low, lonesome low |
Sink you in the lonesome sea» |
«I'll sink you in the low, lonesome low |
Sink you in the lonesome sea» |
