My Jolly Sailor Bold




Upon one summer's morning
I carefully did stray
Down by the warls of wapping
Where I met a sailor gay

Conversing with a young lass
Who seem'd to be in pain
Saying, William when you go
I fear you'll ne'er return again

My heart is pierced by Cupid
I distain all glittering coal
There is nothing can console me
But my Jolly sailor bold

His hair hangs in ringlets
His eyes as black as coal
My happiness attend him
Where ever he may go

From tower hill to blackwall
I'll wander weep and moan
All for my jolly sailor
Until he does return

My heart is pierced by Cupid
I distain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my Jolly sailor bold

My father is a merchant
The truth I now will tell
And in great London city
Opulence don't dwell

His fortune doth exceed
300, 000 gold
And he frowns upon his daughter
Who loves a sailor bold

A fig for his riches
His merchandise and gold
True love has grafted my heart
Give me my sailor bold

My heart is pierced by Cupid
I distain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my Jolly sailor bold

Should he return in poverty
From o're the ocean far
To my tender bosom
I'll press my jolly tar

My sailor is as smiling
As the pleasant month of May
And often we have wandered
Through Ratcliffe Highway

Many pretty blooming
Young girl we did behold
Reclining on the bosom
Of her jolly sailor bold

My heart is pierced by Cupid
I distain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my Jolly sailor bold

My name it is Maria
A merchant's daughter fair
And I have left my parents
3 thousand pounds a year

Come all you pretty fairmaids
Whoever you may be
Who love a jolly sailor
That ploughs the raging sea

While up aloft in storm
From me his abscence mourn
And firmly pray, arrive the day
He never more to row

My heart is pierced by cupid
I disdain on glittering gold
There's nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold

My heart is pierced by cupid
I disdain on glittering gold
There's nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
