[00:13.45]"Well met, well met, my own true love,
[00:18.87]Well met, well met," cried he.
[00:23.37]"I've just returned from the salt, salt sea
[00:28.20]All for the love of thee."
[00:33.98]
[00:34.75]"I could have married the King's daughter dear,
[00:39.10]She would have married me.
[00:43.24]But I have forsaken her crowns of gold
[00:48.10]All for the love of thee."
[00:53.53]
[00:54.09]"Well, if you could have married the King's daughter dear,
[00:58.81]I'm sure you are to blame,
[01:03.01]For I am married to a house carpenter,
[01:07.43]And find him a nice young man."
[01:12.66]
[01:13.38]"Oh, will you forsake your house carpenter
[01:18.44]And go along with me?
[01:22.42]I'll take you to where the grass grows green,
[01:26.49]To the banks of the salt, salt sea."
[01:32.69]
[01:34.49]"Well, if I should forsake my house carpenter
[01:39.69]And go along with thee,
[01:43.89]What have you got to maintain me on
[01:47.64]And keep me from poverty?"
[01:53.78]
[01:54.25]"Six ships, six ships all out on the sea,
[01:58.58]Seven more upon dry land,
[02:02.65]One hundred and ten all brave sailor men
[02:06.55]Will be at your command."
[02:12.12]
[02:14.64]She picked up her own wee babe,
[02:19.54]Kisses gave him three,
[02:23.25]Said "Stay right here with my house carpenter
[02:27.29]And keep him good company."
[02:33.46]
[02:33.51]Then she putted on her rich attire,
[02:37.83]So glorious to behold.
[02:41.82]And as she trod along her way,
[02:45.65]She shown like the glittering gold.
[02:51.75]
[02:53.38]Well, they'd not been gone but about two weeks,
[02:58.30]I know it was not three.
[03:01.80]When this fair lady began to weep,
[03:06.15]She wept most bitterly.
[03:11.82]
[03:12.00]"Ah, why do you weep, my fair young maid,
[03:16.48]Weep it for your golden store?
[03:20.33]Or do you weep for your house carpenter
[03:24.52]Who never you shall see anymore?"
[03:29.48]
[03:30.61]"I do not weep for my house carpenter
[03:34.64]Or for any golden store.
[03:38.58]I do weep for my own wee babe,
[03:42.41]Who never I shall see anymore."
[03:47.81]
[03:51.14]Well, they'd not been gone but about three weeks,
[03:55.62]I'm sure it was not four.
[03:59.25]Our gallant ship sprang a leak and sank,
[04:03.76]Never to rise anymore.
[04:09.40]
[04:09.52]One time around spun our gallant ship,
[04:13.59]Two times around spun she,
[04:17.40]Three times around spun our gallant ship
[04:21.39]And sank to the bottom of the sea.
[04:27.43]
[04:28.58]"What hills, what hills are those, my love,
[04:33.52]That rise so fair and high?"
[04:37.89]"Those are the hills of heaven, my love,
[04:41.76]But not for you and I."
[04:46.88]
[04:46.96]"And what hills, what hills are those, my love,
[04:52.10]Those hills so dark and low?"
[04:56.22]"Those are the hills of hell, my love,
[04:59.87]Where you and I must go."
