The Landlord's Daughter
(Indisponível)
As I was rambled
Down by the water
I spied in sable
the landlord's daughter
Produced my pistol, then my saber
To make no whistle or thou will be murdered
She cursed, she shivered
She cried for mercy,
"My gold and silver if thou will release me!"
I'll take no gold miss, I'll take no silver
I'll take those sweet lips, and I'll deliver
[You'll Not Feel the Drowning]
I will dress your eyelids
With dimes upon your eyes
Laying close to water
Green your grave will rise
Go to sleep little ugly
go to sleep you little fool
Forty-winking in the belfry
You'll not feel the drowning
You'll not feel the drowning
Forget you once had sweethearts
They've forgotten you
Think you not on parents
They've forgotten too
Go to sleep now little ugly
go to sleep now you little fool
Forty-winking in the belfry
You'll not feel the drowning
You'll not feel the drowning
Go to sleep little ugly
Go to sleep little fool
Forty-winking in the belfry
You'll not feel the drowning
You'll not feel the drowning
Hear you now the captain
Heed his sorrowed cry
"Weight upon your eyelids
As dimes laid on your eyes"
