Our Captain Cried

歌詞

Our captain cried, "All hands and away tomorrow" Leaving my dearest Eve, in grief and sorrow "Dry up your briny tears and leave off weeping How happy we shall be at our next meeting" "How can you go abroad and fight with strangers? You said you'd stay at home, here out of danger? I'd roll you in my arms, my dearest jewel So stay at home with me and don't be cruel" "When I had gold in store, you seemed to love me Now I am low and poor, you mean to slight me You courted me awhile, just to deceive me Now my poor heart you've won, you're going to leave me" "Farewell me dearest friends, father and mother I am your only child, you have no other 'Tis fain to weep for me, for I am going My love I love so dear, it is my ruin Our captain cried, "All hands and away tomorrow" Leaving my dearest Eve, in grief and sorrow "Dry up your briny tears and leave off weeping How happy we shall be at our next meeting"
