|
A Sailor came to town |
|
A little seaside town |
|
He courted there a country girl |
|
Until her heart he had found |
|
When she in love gave him |
|
Her body and her limbs |
|
He took her avariciously |
|
When he performed the sin |
|
The sailor left the town |
|
Left her in grief unbound |
|
Nine months went by |
|
In labour then a baby boy was found |
|
They say the sailor was the devil in disguise |
|
He cast a spell on the young girl |
|
Seduced her with his lies |
|
They say he was his spawn |
|
The devils so deformed |
|
No mercy for the mother then |
|
A devils child stillborn |
|
The mother took her child with anguish crazed was she |
|
And threw herself along with child into the raging sea |
