Sing lili, lili, O, O lili, lili, O This young lady she was courted By men of high degree; There was none but Jack the sailor Would ever do for she. As soon as her waiting-maid Heard what she did say, She went unto her father With her heart content. Dcar daughter, if this be true What I have heard of you, It's Jackie shall be vanished And you confined shall be. This body you may have, My heart you can't confine; There's none but Jack the sailor That can have this heart of mine. Poor Jackie, he's gone sailing With trouble on his mind, A-leaving of his country And darling girl behind. Poor Jackie, he's gone sailing, His face we shall see no more. He's landed at San Flanders On the dismal sandy shore. She went into the tailor shop And dressed in men's array, And went into a vessel To convey herself away. Before you step on board, sir, Your name I'd like to know. She smiled all over her countenance "They call me Jack Monroe." Your waist is light and slender, Your fingers neat and small, Your cheeks too red and rosy To face the cannon ball. I know my waist is ligbt and slender, My fingers are neat and small, But I never change my countenance To face the cannon ball. The wars heing over, She hunted all around Among the dead and wounded, And her darling boy she fonnd. She picked him all up in her arms And carried him to the town, And sent for a physician Who quickly healed his wounds. This couple they got married, So well did they agree. This couple they got married, And why not you and me?
