Sally Sits Weeping

Sally sits a weeping down by the sea shore
Poor Sally sits a weeping down by the sea shore
What ails you my jewel? What ails you my jewel?
What ails you my jewel in sorrow to mourn?
Well once I had a true love but now I have none
Well once I had a true love but now I have none
Hes gone and hes left me, he has cruelly deceived me
Hes gone and hes left me in sorrow to mourn
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
Mine own precious jewel kept smiling by me
Mine own precious jewel kept smiling by me
But when I awakened I found it not so
But when I awakened I found it not so
Mine eyes like some fountain with tears overflow
Mine eyes like some fountain with tears overflow
Ill journey through England through France and through Spain
Ill journey through England through France and through Spain
My life I will venture on the watery main
My life I will venture on the watery main
Ill set sails of silver and steer towards the sun
Ill set sails of silver and steer towards the sun
And my false love will weep, my false love will weep
My false love will weep for me after Im gone
Sally sits a weeping down by the sea shore
Poor Sally sits a weeping down by the sea shore
What ails you my jewel? What ails you my jewel?
What ails you my jewel in sorrow to mourn?
