I Never Will Marry (I'll Never Marry)
One morning as I rambled all down the seashore
The wind it did whistle and the waters did roar
I heard a fair damsel make a pitiful sound
It sounded so lonesome in the waters around
I never will marry, or be no man's wife
I expect to live single all the days of my life
The shells in the ocean shall be my death bed
The fish in deep waters swim over my head
She plunged her fair body in the waters so deep
She closed her blue eyes in the waters to sleep
My love's gone and left me, the one I adore
She's gone where I never will see her any more
I never will marry, or be no man's wife
I expect to live single all the days of my life
The shells in the ocean shall be my death bed
The fish in deep waters swim over my head
