Sailor's Life

Judy Collins

Ton : DCapo 4English
D 
Oh a sCailor's life is a wDeary life
For he rCobs the girls of tDheir delight
Causes them to weep causes them to mourn
LGoss of a true love nDever to return
Oh fCather father bDuild me a boat
And oCn the world's oceans ID will float
Hail each captain as I pass by
TGhere I'll ask for my sailor bDoy
Oh cCaptain captain tDell me true
Does mCy own Willie sDail with you?
Tell me soon to give me joy
NGone will I have but my sailor bDoy
Oh nCo kind lady hDe's not here
He dCrowned in the gulf and we bDuried him there
Upon the island as we passed by
TGhere we left your sailor bDoy
Oh she rCung her hands and tDore her hair
Just lCike some lady in gDreat despair
Called for a chair to sit her down
PGenningdon for to write it dDown
Oh dCig my grave wide and dDeep
Put a mCarble stone at the hDead and feet
On my grave a turtle dove
TGell the world I died for my lDove
Oh a sCailor's life is a wDeary life
For he rCobs the girls of tDheir delight
Causes them to weep causes them to mourn
LGoss of a true love nDever to return
