Farewell Nancy
Farewell my lovely Nancy for I must now leave you
Unto the salt seas I am bound for to go
but let this long absence be no trouble to you
for I will return in the spring as you know
Like some pretty little sea boy
I will dress and go with you
in the deepest of dangers
I shall stand your friend
in the cold stormy weather
when the winds they are a-blowing
my love I'll be willing
to wait on you then
Your pretty little hands
cannot handle our tackle
and your pretty little feet
To our topmast can't go
and the cold stormy weather, love
you ne'er could endure
therefore lovely Nancy
to the sea do not go
Farewell my lovely Nancy
for I must now leave you
unto the salt seas I am bound for to go
but let my long absence
be no trouble to you
for I will return in the spring
as you know
Unto the salt seas I am bound for to go
but let this long absence be no trouble to you
for I will return in the spring as you know
Like some pretty little sea boy
I will dress and go with you
in the deepest of dangers
I shall stand your friend
in the cold stormy weather
when the winds they are a-blowing
my love I'll be willing
to wait on you then
Your pretty little hands
cannot handle our tackle
and your pretty little feet
To our topmast can't go
and the cold stormy weather, love
you ne'er could endure
therefore lovely Nancy
to the sea do not go
Farewell my lovely Nancy
for I must now leave you
unto the salt seas I am bound for to go
but let my long absence
be no trouble to you
for I will return in the spring
as you know
