[00:26.19]Well met well met said an old true love
[00:30.74]
[00:32.80]Well met well met said he
[00:37.13]
[00:38.03]I have just returned from the salt salt sea
[00:43.56]And its all for the love of thee
[00:47.85]
[00:49.19]Come in come in my own true love
[00:54.15]
[00:56.14]And have a seat by me
[01:00.35]
[01:01.22]Its been three fourths of a long long year
[01:06.85]Since together we have been
[01:11.27]
[01:34.38]I can't come in and I can't sit down
[01:38.97]
[01:40.21]For I've only a moments time
[01:45.08]
[01:46.02]They say you're married to a house carpenter
[01:51.41]And your heart will never be mine
[01:56.01]
[01:57.29]I could've married the kings daughter fair
[02:02.48]
[02:04.30]And she would've married me
[02:08.91]
[02:09.44]But I have forsaken her crowns of gold
[02:15.11]And it's all for the love of thee
[02:19.26]
[02:42.18]Now will you forsake your house carpenter
[02:47.56]
[02:49.33]And go along with me
[02:53.95]
[02:54.47]I'll take you where the grass grows green
[03:00.09]On the banks of the deep blue sea
[03:04.69]
[03:05.77]Then she picked up her darling little babe
[03:10.92]
[03:12.84]And kisses she gave it three
[03:17.72]Saying stay right here my darling little babe
[03:23.00]
[03:23.67]And keep your papa company
[03:28.38]
[03:53.95]They had not been on the ship two weeks
[03:58.95]
[04:00.79]I'm sure it was not three
[04:05.94]Till this true love began to weep and to mourn
[04:11.80]And she wept most bitterly
[04:16.02]
[04:17.30]Saying are you weeping for my silver and my gold
[04:22.33]
[04:24.11]Saying are you weeping for my store
[04:28.79]
[04:29.88]Or are you weeping for your house carpenter
[04:34.77]
[04:35.35]Whose face you'll never see no more
[04:39.08]
[04:40.88]A curse a curse to the sailor she cried
[04:45.75]
[04:48.01]A curse a curse she swore
[04:52.46]
[04:53.03]You robbed me of the darling little babe
[04:58.37]
[04:58.91]That I shall never see no more
[05:03.32]
[05:04.42]They had not been on the ship three weeks
[05:09.53]
[05:11.47]I'm sure it was not four
[05:15.84]
[05:16.81]When there came a leak in the bottom of the ship
[05:21.89]
[05:22.59]And sank them for to rise no more
