lirik lagu jp harris - house carpenter
[verse 1]
well met, well met said my own true love
well met, well met said she
oh i’ve just returned from the salt, salt sea
from the land where the grass grows green
[verse 2]
oh i could have married a king’s daughter fair
and she would have married me
but i have forsaken her silver and her gold
and it’s all for the love of thee
[verse 3]
if you could have married a king’s daughter there
i’m sure you are to blame
for i am married to a house carpenter
and i think he’s a nice young man
[verse 4]
if you’ll forsake your house carpenter
and come and go with me
i’ll take you where the grass grows green
on the banks of the salt, salt sea
[verse 5]
so she picked up her darling little babes
and kissed them one, two, three
saying “you stay here with the house carpenter
who’ll take good care of thee.”
[verse 6]
they hadn’t been a~sailing but about two weeks
i’m sure it was not three
when the maid began to weep and moan
oh, weep most bitterly
[verse 7]
oh are you weeping for your house carpenter
or are you weeping for your store?
no i am weeping for my darling little babes
whose face i’ll never see no more
[verse 8]
they hadn’t been a~sailing but about three weeks
i’m sure it was not four
when the ship sprang a leak to the bottom of the sea
and sank to sail no more
