Ye Mariners All Songtext
von Martin Carthy

Ye mariners all, as ye pass by
Come in and drink when you are dry
Come spend, my lads, your money brisk
And pop your nose in a jug of this

Ye tipplers all, as ye pass by
Come in and drink when you are dry
Come spend, my lads, your money brisk
And pop your nose in a jug of this


Ye tipplers all, if ye′ve half a crown
You're welcome all for to sit down
Come in, sit down, think not amiss
To pop your nose in a jug of this

Oh now I′m old and can scarcely crawl
I've a long grey beard and a head that's bald
Crown my desire, fulfil my bliss
A pretty girl and a jug of this

Oh when I′m in my grave and dead
And all my sorrows are past and fled
Transform me then into a fish
And let me swim in a jug of this


Ye mariners all, as ye pass by
Come in and drink when you are dry
Come in, sit down, think nought amiss
To pop your nose in a jug of this
