Could you fancy a poor sailor lad, Who has just come from sea?

        A                    A                    A                     A
You are ragged love, you are dirty love, and your clothes smell much of tar
     Dm             A                A             D    G
So begone you saucy sailor lad, so begone you Jack Tar

If I am ragged love, and I'm dirty love, and me clothes smell much of tar
       Dm           A                A             D      G
I have silver in me pocket love, and gold in great store

         A                  A             A               A
And then when she heard him say so on her bended knee she fell
       Dm            A           A                    D     G
I will marry my dear Henry for I love a sailor lad so well

       A               A                    A               A
Do you think that I am foolish love, Do you think that I am mad?
       Dm              A                      A               D    G
For to wed with a poor country girl, Where no fortune's to be had

       A               A             A           A
I will cross the briny ocean, I will whistle and sing
          Dm                  A                A                         D     G
And since you have refused me offer love, some other girl shall wear the ring

     A                    A          A            A
I am frolicsome, and I am easy, good tempered and free
      Dm                  A                     A                D    D/C   D  D/C
And I don't give a single pin me boys, What the world thinks of me
