Lyrics

One Friday morn as we set sail
And our ship not far from land
We there did espy a fair pretty maid
With a comb and a glass in her hand, her hand
With a comb and a glass in her hand

Then up spoke the captain of our gallant ship
Who at once did our peril see
I have married a wife in fair London town
And this night she a widow will be, will be....

Chorus:
And the raging seas did roar
And the stormy winds did blow
And we jolly sailor boys were sitting up aloft
And the land lubbers lying down below, below
And the land lubbers lying down below

Then up and spoke the little cabin boy
And a fair haired boy was he
'I've a father and mother in fair Portsmouth town
And this night they will weep for me, for me'....

Then three times round went our gallant ship
And three times round went she
For the want of a lifeboat they both were drowned
And she sank to the bottom of the sea, the sea...
