Текст пісні
I'm going away to a faraway land
And I'm going away for a while
I'll return to you my love
Though I'll go ten thousand miles
The sun will dry the ocean
Heaven will cease to be
The world will lose its motion my love
If I prove false to thee
Who's gonna shoe your pretty little feet
Who's gonna glove your hand
Who's gonna kiss your sweet ruby lips
While I'm in the faraway land
Father will shoe my pretty little feet
And my brother will glove my hand
And you can kiss my sweet ruby lips
When you return again
The sun will dry the ocean
Heaven will cease to be
The world will lose its motion my love
If I prove false to thee
Who's gonna brush your long yellow hair
Who's gonna pay your fee
Who's gonna father them sweet little babes
While I'm on the raging sea
Mother will brush my long yellow hair
Daddy has paid my fee
But there won't be any sweet little babies
While you're away from me
The sun will dry the ocean
Heaven will cease to be
The world will lose its motion my love
If I prove false to thee
Night wind go tell my sailor man
I'll be waiting in the day
I long to feel his warm embrace
In this cold and hardy sea
The sun will dry the ocean
Heaven will cease to be
The world will lose its motion my love
If I prove false to thee
The sun will dry the ocean
Heaven will cease to be
The world will lose its motion my love
If I prove false to thee
If I prove false to thee
