Niamh Parsons - Sally Sits Weeping lyrics

Sally sits a weeping down by the sea shore Poor Sally sits a weeping down by the sea shore What ails you my j**el? What ails you my j**el? What ails you my j**el 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 has 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 Mine own precious j**el kept smiling by me Mine own precious j**el kept smiling by me But when I awakened I found it not so But when I awakened I found it not so Mine eyes like some fountain with tears overflow Mine eyes like some fountain 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 And 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 j**el? What ails you my j**el? What ails you my j**el in sorrow to mourn?
