Barbara Dickson - My Johnny Was a Shoemaker lyrics

My Johnny was a shoemaker And dearly he loved me My Johnny was a shoemaker But now he's gone to sea With pitch and tar to soil his hands And to sail across the sea, stormy sea And sail across the stormy sea His jacket was a deep sky blue And curly was his hair His jacket was a deep sky blue It was, I do declare For to reef the top sails up against the mast And to sail across the sea, stormy sea And sail across the stormy sea Someday he'll be a captain bold With a brave and gallant crew Someday he'll be a cptain bold With a sword and a spygla** too And when he has a gallant captain's sword He'll come home and marry me, marry me He'll come home and marry me
