Music Across the Water - Farewell Nancy

Farewell, my dearest Nancy
Since 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 shall return in the spring as you know

Like some pretty little sea boy
I will dress and go with you
In the deepest of danger
I shall stand your friend
In the cold, stormy weather
When the winds they are blowing
My dear, I shall be willing to wait on you then

Your pretty little hands
Can't handle our tackle
And your pretty little feet
On our top-mast can't go
And the cold, stormy weather
Love, you ne'er can endure
Therefore, dearest Nancy, to the seas do not go

So, farewell my dearest Nancy
Since I must now leave you
Unto the salt seas
I am bound for to go
Where the winds do blow high
And the seas loud do roar
So, make yourself contented, be kind, stay on shore
