Sailor Boy - Cara Dillon Lyrics by：Traditional/Sam Lakeman/Cara Dillon Composed by：Sam Lakeman/Traditional/Cara Dillon It was early early all in the spring When my love Willie went to serve the king The night being dark and the wind blew high Which parted me from my sailor boy Oh father father build me a boat For on the ocean I mean to float To watch the big ships as they pass by For I might inquire of my sailor boy She had not sailed there for a week or two When she spied the captain and all his crew Oh captain captain come tell me true Does my love Willie sail on board with you Oh fair maid fair maid he is not here He's lost or drowned that I am afraid On yon green island as we passed by T'was there we lost our fine sailor boy She wrung her hands and she tore her hair Just like a lady in deep despair She called for paper both pen and ink And every line she did drop a tear And every word she calls Willie near Oh father father dig me a grave Go dig it long and go dig it wide Place marble stone at my head and feet That the world may know that I died in grief
