My Jolly Sailor Bold

[00:31.13] Upon one summer's morning, I carefully did stray

[00:38.88] Down by the Walls of Wapping, where I met a sailor gay

[00:46.88] Conversing with a bouncing lass, who seemed to be in pain

[00:54.63] Saying William, when you go, I fear you will never return again

[01:02.63] My heart is pierced by Cupid

[01:06.62] I disdain all glittering gold

[01:10.63] There is nothing can console me

[01:14.38] But my jolly sailor bold

[01:32.88] His hair it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal

[01:40.88] My happiness attend him wherever he may go

[01:48.63] From Tower Hill to Blackwall, I'll wander, weep and moan

[01:56.88] All for my jolly sailor, until he sails home

[02:04.63] My heart is pierced by Cupid

[02:08.88] I disdain all glittering gold

[02:12.89] There is nothing can console me

[02:16.63] But my jolly sailor bold

[02:50.97] My name it is Maria, a merchant's daughter fair

[02:58.63] And I have left my parents and three thousand pounds a year

[03:06.63] Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be

[03:14.63] Who love a jolly sailor that ploughs the raging sea

[03:22.64] While up aloft in storm, from me his absence mourn

[03:30.38] And firmly pray, arrive the day, he's never more to roam

[03:38.88] My heart is pierced by Cupid

[03:42.39] I disdain all glittering gold

[03:46.88] There is nothing can console me

[03:50.63] But my jolly sailor bold

[03:57.13] My heart is pierced by Cupid

[04:00.64] I disdain all glittering gold

[04:04.88] There is nothing can console me

[04:10.96] But my jolly sailor bold
