I the wings to fly
So go and get me to a boat
To carry both my love and I
Must I be bound and she go free
Am I to love while she don't love me
Why should I act the childish part
And love a girl that breaks my heart
There is a ship out on the sea
And loaded deep as it can be
But not as deep as love am I
Don't care if I should live or die
The water is wide I can't get over
Neither have I the wings to fly
So go and get me to a boat
To carry both my love and I
To carry both my love and I
