Saucy Sailor

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Come me own one, come me fair one Come now unto me Could you fancy a poor sailor lad Who has just come from sea [Verse 2] You are ragged love and you're dirty love And your clothes smell much of tar So be gone you saucy sailor lad So be gone you Jack Tar [Verse 3] If I am ragged love and I'm dirty love And me clothes smell much of tar I have silver in me pocket love And gold in great store [Verse 4] And then when she heard him say say On her bended knee she fell I will marry my dear Henry For I love a sailor lad so well [Verse 5] Do you think that I, I am foolish love Do you think that I am mad For to wed with a poor country girl Where no fortune's to be had I will cross the briny ocean I will whistle and sing And since you've refused the offer love Some other girl shall wear the ring I am frolicsome and I am easy Good tempered and free And I don't give a single pin me boys What the world thinks of me
