Tekst piosenki

[Verse] It was on last Sunday evening Just about the hour of three When my darling started leaving To sail on that deep blue sea He promised to write a letter He promised to write to me And I haven't heard from my darling Who sails on that deep blue sea My mother is dead and buried My papa's forsaken me And I have no one to love me But the sailor on the deep blue sea Oh, Captain, can you tell me Can you tell me where he may be Oh, yes, my little maiden He's drowned in the deep blue sea Farewell to friends and relations It's the last you'll see of me I'm going to end my trouble By drowning in the deep blue sea
