Arlo Guthrie & Pete Seeger - Golden Vanity lyrics

There was a lofty ship, and she put out to sea And the name of the our ship was the Golden Vanity And she sailed upon the low and lonesome low As she sailed upon the lonesome sea We had not been out but two weeks or three When we were overtaken by the Turkish Revelee As we sailed upon the low and lonesome low As we sailed upon the lonesome sea The quickly up spoke our little cabin boy Sayin', "What will you give me if I will them destroy If I sink 'em in the low and lonesome low If I sink 'em in the lonesome sea?" The man that them destroy," our captain then replied "Five thousand pounds and my daughter for his bride If he sink 'em in the low and lonesome low If he sink 'em in the lonesome sea" Then the boy he smote his chest and overboard jumped he And he swum till he came to the Turkish Revelee As they sailed upon the low and lonesome low As they sailed upon the lonesome sea Now he had a little tool that was made for the use And he bored three holes in her side all at once And he sunk her in the low and lonesome low And he sunk her in the lonesome sea Then he swam back to the ship and he beat upon the side Sayin', "Captain, pick me up, for I'm drifting with the tide And I'm sinking in the low and lonesome low And I'm sinkin' in the lonesome sea" "I will not pick you up," the Captain then replied "I'll shoot you, I'll drown you, I'll sink you in the tide And I'll sink you in the low and lonesome low And I'll sink you in the lonesome sea" Then the boy he took his tool; in our side he bored holes three Saying, "Captain, I'll take you with me to the bottom of the sea And I'll sink you in the low and lonesome low And I'll sink you in the lonesome sea" And we sank into the lonesome sea And we sank into the lonesome sea
