Now I am a mariner that ploughs the angry seas. I always loved seafarin? life, I bid my love adieu I shipped as steward and cook, me boys, on board the Kangaroo. cho: Oh I never thought she would prove false or either prove untrue As we sailed away through Milford Bay on board the Kangaroo "Think of me, oh think of me," she mournfully did say, "When you are in a foreign land and I am far away. Take this lucky tuppenny bit, it?ll make you bear in mind That lovin? trustin? faithful heart you left in tears behind." "Cheer Up, cheer up, my own true love. Don?t weep so bitterly," She sobbed, she sighed, she choked, she cried and could not say goodbye "I won?t be gone for very long, ?tis but a month or two. When I will return again of course I?ll visit you." Our ship it was homeward bound from many?s the foreign shore And many?s the foreign present unto me love I bore. I brought tortoises from Tenerife and toys from Timbuktu A china rat, a Bengal cat and a Bombay cockatoo. Paid off I sought her dwellin? on a street above the town Where an ancient dame upon the line was hangin? out her gown. "Where is me love? " "She?s vanished, sir, six months ago With a smart young man that drives the van for Chaplin, Son and Co. Here?s a health to dreams of married life, to soap suds and blue, Heart?s true love and patent starch and washin? soda too. I?ll go unto some foreign shore, no longer can I stay And with some China hottentot I?ll throw meself away. Me love she is no foolish girl, her age it is two score Me love she is no spinster, she?s been married twice before. I cannot say it was her wealth that stole me heart away; She?s a washer in a laundry for one and nine a day Related Lyrics Random lyrics: TRAMPS AND HAWKERS, WHISKEY ON A SUNDAY, WILD MOUNTAIN THYME, WILD ROVER, YE JACOBITES BY NAME, Bayangkanlah, Begitu Indah, Beri Aku Arti, Hitam, Jawaban Hati, Kasih Tak Sampai, Kemana Angin Berhembus, Mahadewi, Seandainya Aku Bisa Memilih, Semua Tak Sama, Seperti Kekasihku, Sesuata Yang Indah, Sesuatu Yang Indah, Sobat, adios ayer, Aika Mittaa Ystaevyyttae, Ei Mee Pois, En Kaipaa Sua, Yoeperhonen, La Jasette, 11 Y 6, Al Lado Del Camino, Brillante Sobre El Mic, Cable A Tierra, Cadaver Exquisito, CadVer Exquisito, Circo Beat, Dar Es Dar, Del 63, Dos En La Ciudad, El Amor Despues Del Amor, El Chico De La Tapa, El Diablo De Tu CorazN, El Diablo De Tu Coraz?N, Fue Amor, Giros, Llueve Sobre Mojado, Mariposa Technicolor, Polaroid De Locura Ordinaria, Tres Agujas, Absent Minded, Artless Treatment, Collapsed, Confidence in the Executioner, Confidence In The Executioner (Share Nothing), Other Paddy Schmidt song Lyrics ARAGON MILL Lyrics ARE YE SLEEPING MAGGIE Lyrics BACK HOME IN DERRY Lyrics MADAM IM A DARLING Lyrics MAIRIS WEDDING Lyrics MOLLY MALONE Lyrics MONTO Lyrics MURSHIN DURKIN Lyrics MY BELFAST Lyrics NANCY WHISKEY Lyrics NOW IM EASY Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Padi Lyrics Padilla Jose Lyrics Paeivi Lepistoe Lyrics Paent Kevin Lyrics Paez Fito Lyrics Fito Paez Lyrics PAGAN LORN Lyrics Pagano Lindsay Lyrics Page Lyrics Page and Plant Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
