[verse 1]
i lived in service in rosemary lane
i kept the good will of my master and dame
’til a sailor came there one night for to lay
and that was the beginning of my misery

[verse 2]
he called for a candle to light him to bed
and likewise, a silk handkerchief to tie up his head
to tie up his head was useful to do
says he, “pretty polly, won’t you come to bed too?”

[verse 3]
this girl being young and foolish, she thought it no harm
to jump into bed to keep herself warm
but what was done next, i’ll never dеclare
but i wish that short night had been seven long yеars

[verse 4]
it was early next morning the sailor arose
and into her lap, he threw handfuls of gold
saying, “this i will give, and more i will, too
if you’ll be my polly wherever i go”

[verse 5]
“and when your baby is born, you put it to nurse
and sit like a lady with gold in your purse
with gold in your purse and milk in your breast”
saying, “that’s what you got from your sailor in the west”
[verse 6]
and if it’s a boy, he shall fight for his king
and if it’s a girl, she shall wear the gold ring
she shall wear the gold ring and her topknot shall fall
saying, “that’s what you got by your sailor true blue”
