The Wave on the Sea

[Chorus]
Oh, the waves on the sea, how they roll
The chilly winds, how they do blow
My own true love got drowneded in the deep
And the ship never got to the shore

[Verse 1]
Oh, the first on the deck was a porter of the ship
And a rough-looking fellow was he
Says, "I care no more for my wife and my child
Than I do for the fish in the sea"

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Well, I left my dear darling a-grieving
Well, I left my dear darling a-grieving
I left my dear darling grieving after me
For I never expect to see her anymore

[Chorus]
