The Sea Shell

The Sea Shell

Sea Shell, Sea Shell,Sing me a song, O please!A song of ships and sailor-men,Of parrots and tropical trees;Of islands lost in the Spanish MainWhich no man ever may see again,Of fishes and corals under the waves,And sea-horses stabled in great green caves—Sea Shell, Sea Shell,Sing me a song, O please!

Sea Shell, Sea Shell,Sing me a song, O please!A song of ships and sailor-men,Of parrots and tropical trees;Of islands lost in the Spanish MainWhich no man ever may see again,Of fishes and corals under the waves,And sea-horses stabled in great green caves—Sea Shell, Sea Shell,Sing me a song, O please!

Sea Shell, Sea Shell,

Sing me a song, O please!

A song of ships and sailor-men,

Of parrots and tropical trees;

Of islands lost in the Spanish Main

Which no man ever may see again,

Of fishes and corals under the waves,

And sea-horses stabled in great green caves—

Sea Shell, Sea Shell,

Sing me a song, O please!
