Goodbye little Robin Marie

Don't try following me

Don't cry little Robin Marie

Cause you know I'm coming home soon

My ship leaving on a three years tour

The next time take us from the shore

Wind laced gather in sail and spray

For the search of the mighty sperm whale

Fly your willow branches

Wrap your body round my soul

Lay down your reeds and drums on my soft sheets

There are years behind us reaching

To the place where hearts go beating

And I know you're last true love I'll ever meet

And I know you're last true love I'll ever meet

Star buck sharpening his harpoon

The black man is playing his true

There are all someone sharpening what you way

The better are drunk before noon

Raise selling on wait and needs

Wind laced the way will decy

But don't cry little Robin Marie

Cause will be slow them soon

Fly your willow branches Robin Maire

Follow round my soul

Lay down your reeds and drums on my soft sheets

There are years behind us reaching

To the place where hearts go beating

And I know you're last true love I'll ever meet

And I know you're last true love I'll ever meet
