I courted a sailor for six months and many, |
|
I courted a sailor, now he's far from me. |
|
I courted a sailor for six months and many, |
|
I courted a sailor, now he's far from me. |
|
On a fine summer's evening he said his heart was grieving |
|
On a fine summer's evening these words he said to me |
|
|
|
CHORUS |
|
Oh I'm bound for the waves, the waves dearest Annie, |
|
I'm bound for the waves, the waves upon the sea. |
|
Oh I'm bound for the waves, the waves dearest Annie, |
|
I'm bound for the waves, the captain calleth me. |
|
|
|
Me heart has been yours now for six months and many, |
|
Me heart has been yours now and will always remain. |
|
Me heart has been yours now for six months and many, |
|
Me heart has been yours now and will always remain. |
|
Take with you me ring and me heart you'll always bring, |
