My Johnny Was a Shoemaker
Traditional
[Verse 1]
My Johnny was a shoemaker and dearly he loved me
My Johnny was a shoemaker but now he's gone to sea
With pitch and tar to soil his hands and to sail across the sea
Stormy sea, and sail across the stormy sea
[Verse 2]
His jacket was a deep sky blue and curly was his hair
His jacket was a deep sky blue, it was, I do declare
To reef the topsails up against the mast and to sail across the sea
Stormy sea, and sail across the stormy sea
[Verse 3]
Some day he'll be a captain bold with a brave and a gallant crew
Some day he'll be a captain bold with a sword and spyglass too
And when he has a gallant captain's sword, he'll come home and marry me
Marry me, he'll come home and marry me
