Come my own one, come my fair one
Come now unto me
Could you fancy a poor sailor lad
Who has just come from the sea?
You are ragged love and you are dirty love
And your clothes smell much of tar
So be gone you saucy sailor lad
So be gone you Jack Tar
If I am ragged love and I am dirty love
And my clothes smell much of tar
I have silver in me pocket love
And gold in great store
And then when she heard him say so
On her bended knee she fell
I will marry my dear Henry,
For I love a sailor man so well
Do ya 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 have 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
And I don't give a single pin me boys....
What the world thinks of me
