She went into a tailor shop and dressed in men's array And stepped on board a vessel to convey herself away "Before you step on board, sir, your name I'd like to know" She smiled all in her countenance, "They call me Jackaroe" "Your waist is light and slender, your fingers are neat and small Your cheeks too red and rosy to face the cannonball" "I know my waist is slender, my fingers neat and small But it would not make me tremble to see ten thousand fall" The war soon being over, they hunted all around And among the dead and dying her darling boy she found She picked him up all in her arms and carried him to the town And sent for a physician who quickly healed his wounds This couple they got married and well they did agree This couple they got married, so why not you and me @love @sailor @transvestite recorded by Joan Baez filename[ JACKROE SF ===DOCUMENT BOUNDARY Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Jamie Foyer, January Man, Jarama Valley, Jaunting Car, Jealous Brothers, Jealous Husband Well Fitted, Jealous Lover, Jeelie Piece Song Skyscraper Wean, Jefferson And Liberty, Jennie Jenkins, Jennifer Gentle Modern, Jenny Jenkins, Jerseywocky, Jesse James, Jim Crow, Jim Jones Botany Bay, Jim Swaggart The Preacher, Jim The Carter Lad, Jimmy Raeburn, Jimmy Whelan, Jingle Bell Rock, Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells Vietnam, Jinny Wren Bride, Jock O Hazeldean, Jock O The Side, Jock Sheep, Jock Stewart, Joe Bowers, Joe Hill, Joe Hills Last Will, John Barleycorn, John Birch Society, John Bolyn, John Browns Baby, John Cherokee, John Hardy, John Henry, John Henry The Accountant, John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt, John John The Water Man, John Kanaka, John Maclean March, John Of Dreams, John Reilly, Johnny And Betsy, Johnny And Mollie, Johnny And Old Mr Henly, Johnny Be Fair, Johnny Blunt, Other Unknown song Lyrics 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall Lyrics A Bird in a Gilded Cage Lyrics A Fenian Song Lyrics A Fool Such As I Lyrics A Friend Like You Lyrics A Hero of the Wrong War Lyrics A Horse Named Bill Lyrics A Hundred Years from Now Lyrics A Kangaroo Sat on an Oak Lyrics A Little Bit of Solitude Lyrics A Living Wage Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Unknown Prophets Lyrics Unleashed Lyrics Unleashed Power Lyrics Unlimited Nation Lyrics Unlimited Sound Lyrics UNLOCO Lyrics Unlord Lyrics UNLV Lyrics Unni Wilhelmsen Lyrics Uno Svenningsson 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
