But I tipped her to a shipmate,

And he held her in his spell.

He enraptured her with stories,

And he said I was not true,

When next I met my loved one,

She said, “I’m through with you.”

I’ve told you all I know, boys,

Or all I care to tell,

So if you love a girlie, Gobs,

Have your shipmates go tu’ell.
