The Deep Blue Sea - Irish Rovers

Well, the sailor and his own true love,
They kissed and cooed like turtledoves.
Arm in arm and fancy free,
Strolling by the deep blue sea.

Chorus:
The deep blue sea, the deep blue sea
Sailin' on the deep blue see. x2

The sailor to his love did say,
'My captain calls, I must away.
Our ship is waiting at the key
To sail upon the deep blue sea.'

Chorus

As he sailed down from Belfast town,
Tear drops from her eyes fell down,
But Jonny let me heart full (?) be,
A-sailing on the deep blue sea.

Chorus

Well he hadn't gone but a day or two,
When the lassie cried, 'what will I do?
I'm tired of waiting so patiently,
Down beside the deep blue sea.'

Chorus

Soon her sorrow turned to joy,
When she met another sailor boy,
Said he, 'I'll keep you company,
While Jonny's on the deep blue sea.'

Chorus

So if you have a love that's true,
Marry her what 'ere you do,
Then stay ashore and happy be,
Far away from the deep blue sea.
