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 He's gone and he's left me He's cruelly deceived me He's gone and he's 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 My own precious jewel Came smiling by me My own precious jewel Came smiling by me
But when I awakened I found it not so But when I awakened I found it not so My eyes like some fountains With tears overflow My eyes like some fountains With tears overflow
I'll journey through England, through France and through Spain I'll 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
I'll set sails of silver and steer towards the sun I'll set sails of silver and steer towards the sun My false love will weep My false love will weep My false love will weep for me After I'm 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?
