(Rythme 3/4)
As DI rode aDshore from my Dschooner close Dby D D
A Dgirl on the Dbeach I did Gchanced to esApy A
But her Dhair it was Dred and her Gbonnet was AblueA
And her Dplace of aGbode was in AHarbour LeD CouD D D
Now oh Dboldly I Dasked her to Dwalk on the DsandD D
She Dsmiled like an Dangel mand Gheld out her Ahand A
So I Dbuttoned me Dguernsey and Ghoved way me AchewA
In the Ddark rolling Gwaters of AHarbour Le DCouD D D
Now my Dship she lay Danchored far Dout on the DtideD D
As I Dstroll along Dwith that Gmaid at me AsideA
I told Dher I loved Dher, I said GI'll be AtrueA
As I Dwinked at the Gmoon over AHarbour Le DCouD D D
And as Dwe strolled aDlong at the Dclose of the DdayD D
I Dthought of me Dwife who was Gback in TorAbayA
Well I Dknew that she'd Dkill me if she Gonly AknewA
I was Dcourting the Gmaid in AHarbour Le DCouD D D
As we Dpassed a log Dcabin that Dstood on the DshoreD D
I Dmet an old Dcomrade I'd Gsailed with beAforeA
Well he Dtreated me Dkindly says "GJohn, how are Ayou?"A
It is Dseldom we Gsee you in AHarbour Le DCouD D D
And as DI was Dparting this Dmaiden in DtowD D
He Dbroke up my Dparty with Gone single AblowA
Says "DRegards to your DMrs and Gwee kiddies Atoo A
I reDmember her Gwell, she's from AHarbour Le DCou"D D D
Now I Dlooked at this Dmaiden a Dstanding 'long DsideD D
Her Djaw in way Ddropped and her Gmouth opened AwideA
And Dthen like a Dshe-cat uGpon me she AflewA
And I Dfled from the Gfurys of AHarbour Le DCouD D D
Come Dall you young Dsailors who Dwalk on the DshoreD D
BeDware of old Dcomrades you Gsailed with beAforeA
BeDware of the Dmaidens with the Gbonnets of AblueA
And the Dpretty young Gdamsels of AHarbour Le DCou
