A brisk young sailor courted me,
He stole away my liberty,
He won my heart with a free good-will,
He`s false, I know, but I love him still.
There is an alehouse in yonder town,
Where my love goes and sits him down,
He takes another girl on his knee,
And don`t you think that`s a grief to me?
A grief to me! I`ll tell you why,
Because she`s got more gold than I,
Her gold will waste and her beauty blast,
And she`ll become like me at last.
