Golden Vanity歌词完整版
There was a ship that sailed that all on the lowland sea
And the name of our ship was the Golden Vanity
And we feared she would be taken by the Spanish enemy
As she sailed in the lowland lowland low
As she sailed in the lowland sea
Then up spoke our cabinboy and boldly out spoke he
And he said to our captain "What will you give to me
If I swim along the side of the Spanish enemy
And sink her in the lowland lowland low
And sink her in the lowland sea "
"Oh I will give you silver and I will give you gold
And my own fair daughter your bonny bride shall be
If you'll swim along side of the Spanish enemy
And sink her in the lowland lowland low
And sink her in the lowland sea
Then the boy he made him ready and overboard sprang he
And he swam along side of the Spanish enemy
And with his brace and auger
In her side he bored holes three
He sank her in the lowland lowland low
Yes he sank her in the lowland sea
Then quickly he swam back to the cheering of the crew
But the captain would not heed him
For his promise he did rue
And he scorned his poor entreatings
When loudly he did sue
And he left him in the lowland lowland low
He left him in the lowland sea
Then quickly he swam around to the port side
And up to his messmates full bitterly he cried
"Oh messmates draw me up for I'm drifting with the tide
And I'm sinking in the lowland lowland low
I'm sinking in the lowland sea "
Then his messmates drew him up
But on the deck he died
And they stitched him in a hammock
Which was so fair and white
And they lowered him overboard
And he drifted with the tide
And he sank in the lowland lowland low
He sank in the lowland sea
