Pleasant and Delightful |
| It was pleasant and delightful |
| On a midsummer’s morn |
| Where the green fields and meadows |
| Were buried in the corn |
| And the blackbirds and thrushes |
| Sang on every green tree |
| And the larks they sang melodious |
| At the dawning of the day |
| Well a sailor and his true love |
| Were out walking one day |
| Said the sailor to his true love |
| I am bound for the Easy Indies |
| Where the loud cannons roar |
| And I’m leaving my Nancy |
| She’s the one that I adore |
| Said the Sailor to his true love |
| Well I must be on me way |
| The topsails are hoisted |
| And the anchors are weighed |
| Our big ship lies waiting for to sail on the tide |
| And if ever I return again |
| Then I’ll make you my bride |
| Then the ring from her finger |
| She instantly drew |
| Saying take this dear Geordie |
| And me heart will go too |
| And as he was embracing her |
| Tears from her eyes fell |
| Saying may I go along with you |
| Oh no me love farewell |
