Ralph Stanley - Waves on the Sea lyrics

Oh, the waves on the sea, how they roll The chilly winds, how they do blow My own true love got drownded in the deep And the ship never got to the shore Oh, the first on the deck was a porter of the ship And a rough-looking fellow was he Says, I care no more for my wife and my child Than I do for the fish in the sea Oh, the waves on the sea, how they roll The chilly winds, how they do blow My own true love got drownded in the deep And the ship never got to the shore Well, I left my dear darling a-grieving I left my dear darling a-grieving I left my dear darling to grieving after me For I never expect to see her anymore Oh, the waves on the sea, how they roll The chilly winds, how they do blow My own true love got drownded in the deep And the ship never got to the shore Oh, the waves on the sea, how they roll The chilly winds, how they do blow My own true love got drownded in the deep And the ship never got to the shore
