Reinaeiry - My Jolly Sailor Bold Lyrics

Ah
Upon one summer's morning
I carefully did stray
Down by the Walls of Wapping
Where I met a sailor gay
Conversing with a young lass
Who seem'd to be in pain
Saying 'Darling, when you go
I fear you'll ne'er return again'
Her hair it hangs in ringlets,
Her eyes as black as coal
My happiness attend her
Wherever she may go
From Tower Hill to Blackwall,
I'll wander, weep and moan
All for my jolly sailor,
Until she sails home
Ah
Come all you pretty fair maids
Whoever you may be
Who love a jolly sailor bold
That ploughs the raging sea
While up aloft in storm
from me her absence mourn
And firmly pray, arrive the day
She's never more to roam
My heart is pierced by Cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold

Ah
Upon one summer's morning
I carefully did stray
Down by the Walls of Wapping
Where I met a sailor gay
Conversing with a young lass
Who seem'd to be in pain
Saying 'Darling, when you go
I fear you'll ne'er return again'
Her hair it hangs in ringlets,
Her eyes as black as coal
My happiness attend her
Wherever she may go
From Tower Hill to Blackwall,
I'll wander, weep and moan
All for my jolly sailor,
Until she sails home
Ah
Come all you pretty fair maids
Whoever you may be
Who love a jolly sailor bold
That ploughs the raging sea
While up aloft in storm
from me her absence mourn
And firmly pray, arrive the day
She's never more to roam
My heart is pierced by Cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
