Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s of a fair and handsome girl
all in her tender years
she fell in love with a sailor boy
and it’s true that she loved him well
for to go off to sea with him
like she did not know how
she longed to see that seaport town
called canadee-i-o

[verse 2]
so she bargained with a young sailor boy
all for a piece of gold
straightway that he led her
all down into the hold
i’ll dress you up in sailor’s clothes
your jacket shall be blue
oh, well you’ll see that seaport town
called canadee-i-o
[verse 3]
now, when the other sailors heard the news
they fеll into a rage
and with the whole ship’s company
thеy were willing to engage
“we’ll tie her hands and feet my boys
overboard we’ll throw her
and she’ll never see that seaport town
of canadee-i-o”

[verse 4]
now, when the captain he’s heard the news
he said that never shall be
for if you drown that fair young maid
then hanged you shall be
she will stay all in sailor’s clothes
her jacket shall be blue
oh, well she will see that seaport town
called canadee-i-o

[verse 5]
now when they came down to canada
scarcely above half a year
she’s married that bold captain
and he called her his dear
she’s dressed in silks and satins now
and she cuts a gallant show
she’s the finest of the ladies
down in canadee-i-o
[verse 6]
come all you fair and tender girls
wheresoever you may be
i’d have you follow your own true love
when he goes out to sea
for if the sailors prove false to you
the captain he might prove true
oh, you see the honour that i have gained
by the wearing of the blue
