Mary Ann

[Verse 1]

Oh, fare thee well, my own true love

Fare thee well but for a while

The ship is waiting and the wind blows high

And I am bound away for the sea, Mary Ann

(I am bound away for the sea, Mary Ann)

[Verse 2]

Ten thousand miles away from home

Ten thousand miles or more

The sea may freeze and the earth may burn

If I never no more return to you, Mary Ann

(Never no more return to you, Mary Ann)

[Verse 3]

Oh, don't you see that crow fly high

She'll surely turn to white

If never I prove false to you

Let the day turn to night, my dear, Mary Ann

(Day will turn to night, my dear, Mary Ann)

[Verse 4]

If I had a flask of gin

And sugar here for two

And a great big bowl for to mix it in

I'd pour a drink for you my dear, Mary Ann

(I'd pour a drink for you my dear, Mary Ann)

Yes, I'd pour a drink for you my dear, Mary Ann
