Lyrics
One day as I wandered down by the sea shore
The wind it did whistle and the water did roar.
I spied a fair maiden made a pitiful sight
She wept by water by day and by night.
I never will marry, I'll be no man's wife
I'm compelled to live single all the days of my life.
The shells in the ocean will be my death bed
The fish in deep water over my head.
My lover has left me, he's the one I adore
He's gone where I'll never see him any more.
She thrust her fair body in the water so deep
She closed her blue eyes in the water to sleep.
I never will marry - I'll be no man's wife
I'm compelled to live single all the days of my life.
The shells in the oceans will be my deathbed
The fish in deep water swim over my head.
