Drowned In The Deep Blue Sea
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It was on one sunday evening just above the airoff tree
When my darlin' started leave me to sail on the deep blue sea
He promised to write me a letter he promised to write to me
And I haven't heard from my darlin' who sails on the 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 got drowned in the deep blue sea
Farawell to friends and relations it's the last you'll see of me
I am going to end my trouble by drowning in the deep blue sea
