Johnny was a Shoemaker.

Johnny was a Shoemaker.My Johnny was a shoemaker,And dearly he loved me;My Johnny he was a shoemaker,But now he’s gone to sea.With nasty tar to soil his hands,And sail across the briny sea.My Johnny was a shoemaker!His jacket was a deep sky blue,And curly was his hair;His jacket was a deep sky blue,It was, I do declare.To reef the top-sails he has gone,To sail across the briny sea.My Johnny was a shoemaker!A Captain he will be bye and bye,With the sword and spy-glass too;A Captain he will be bye and bye,With a brave and valiant crew.And when he gets a vessel of his own,He’ll come back and marry me.My Johnny was a shoemaker!And when I am a Captain’s wife,I’ll sing the whole day long;Yes, when I am a Captain’s wife,And this shall be my song:May peace and plenty bless our days,And the little one on my knee.My Johnny was a shoemaker!

My Johnny was a shoemaker,

And dearly he loved me;

My Johnny he was a shoemaker,

But now he’s gone to sea.

With nasty tar to soil his hands,

And sail across the briny sea.

His jacket was a deep sky blue,

And curly was his hair;

To sail across the briny sea.

A Captain he will be bye and bye,

With the sword and spy-glass too;

A Captain he will be bye and bye,

With a brave and valiant crew.

And when he gets a vessel of his own,

He’ll come back and marry me.

My Johnny was a shoemaker!

And when I am a Captain’s wife,

I’ll sing the whole day long;

Yes, when I am a Captain’s wife,

And this shall be my song:

May peace and plenty bless our days,

And the little one on my knee.

My Johnny was a shoemaker!
