Lyrics:

It was on one summer's evening
Just about the hour of three,
When my darling started to leave me
To sail upon the deep blue sea.
Oh, he promised to write me a letter,
He said that he'd write to me,
But I've not heard from my darling
Since he sailed upon the deep blue sea.
Oh, my mother is dead and buried,
My pa's forsaken me,
And I have no one for to love me
But the sailor on the deep blue sea.
Oh Captain, can you tell me,
Where can my sailor be?
Oh yes, my little maiden,
He is drownded in the deep blue sea.
Farewell to friends and relations,
It's the last you'll see of me,
I am going to end my troubles
By drowning in the deep blue sea.
