Mary Ann

Oh, fare thee well, my own true love, fare thee well but for a while

The ship is waiting and the wind blows high

And i am bound away for the sea, mary ann.



Ten thousand miles away from home, ten thousand miles or more

The sea may freeze and the earth may burn

If i never nomore return to you, mary ann.



Oh, don't you see that crow fly high, she'll surely turn to white

If never i prove false to you

Let the day turn to night, my dear, mary ann.



If i had a flask of gin and sugar here for two

And a great big bowl for two to mix it in

I'd pour a drink for you my dear, mary ann

Yes, i'd pour a drink for you my dear, mary ann.
