Saucy sailor
Steeleye Span
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Come my own one, come my fair one, Come now unto me, Could you fancy a poor sailor lad Who has just come from sea. You are ragged love, you are dirty love, And your clothes smell much of tar, So be gone you saucy sailor lad, So be gone you Jack Tar. If I am ragged love and I am dirty love, And my clothes smell much of tar, I have silver in my pocket love And gold in great store. And then when she heard him say so On her bended knees she fell, I will marry my dear Henry For I love a sailor lad so well. Do you think that I am foolish love, Do you think that I am mad, For to wed with a poor country girl Where no fortune's to be had? I will cross the briny ocean, I will whistle and sing, And since you have refused the offer love Some other girl shall wear the ring. I am frolicsome, I am easy, Good tempered and free, And I don't give a single pin my boys What the world thinks of me.
