here's adieu, sweet lovely nancy - peter bellamy lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1: peter bellamy & chris birch]
here’s adieu, sweet lovely nancy
ten thousand times adieu
i’m a*going around the ocean, love
to seek for something new

[verse 2: peter bellamy & chris birch]
come change your ring with me, dear girl
come change your ring with me
for it might be a token of true love
while i am on the sea
[verse 3: peter bellamy & chris birch]
when i am far upon the sea
you knows not where i am
kind letters i will write to you
from every foreign land

[verse 4: peter bellamy & chris birch]
the secrets of your mind, dear girl
are thе best of my goodwill
so let my body be whеre it might
my heart is with you still

[verse 5: peter bellamy & chris birch]
there’s a heavy storm a*rising
see how it gather round
while we poor sailors are on the sea
are fighting for the crown

[verse 6: peter bellamy & chris birch]
our officer commanded us
and him we must obey
expecting every moment
all to get cast away

[verse 7: peter bellamy & chris birch]
there are tinkers, tailors and shoemakers
lie snoring in their sleep
while we poor souls on the ocean wide
are ploughing through the deep
[verse 8: peter bellamy & chris birch]
there’s nothing to defend us, love
nor to keep us from the cold
on the ocean wide where we must bide
like jolly seamen bold

[verse 9: peter bellamy & chris birch]
but when the wars are all over
there’ll be peace on every shore
we will drink to our wives and our children
and the girls that we adore

[verse 10: peter bellamy & chris birch]
we’ll call for liquor merrily
and spend our money free
and when our money it is all gone
we’ll boldly go to sea
