“I’ve a mother and father in London town,
And this night they will weep for me.”
Then up spoke the captain of our gallant ship,
And a well-spoken man was he:
“I’ve a wife who is living in Liverpool town,
A wife whom I never shall see.”
“My wife who is living in Liverpool town
This night will be looking for me;
She may look till the sun no more goes down,
She may look to the bottom of the sea.”
