Never Will Marry Songtext
von Tarkio

One morning I rambled
Down by the seashore
And the wind it did whistle
And the waves they did roar

I heard some fair maiden
Give a terrible cry
And it sounded so lonely
And it swept us all high

Said William to Molly
"If you will agree
To give your consent, love
And marry me"


"For my mind is to marry
And never to part
For the first time I saw you
You wounded my heart"

"Go away from me, William
And leave me alone
′Cause I am just a poor girl
And a long way from home"

"No, I never will marry
Nor be no man's wife
I′m content to live single
All the days of my life"

The shell in the ocean
Will be my deathbed
With the fish in deep water
Swimming over my head


She cast her fair body
In the water so deep
And she closed her bonnie blue eyes
Forever to sleep
