What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
There was a wealthy merchant, in London he did dwell
2
He had a Beautiful daughter, the truth to you we'll tell
3
Oh the truth to you we'll tell
4
She had sweethearts a plenty, and men of high degree
5
But none but Jack the sailor, her true love ever be
6
Oh her true love ever be
7
Jackie's gone a sailing, with trouble on his mind
8
He's left his native country and his darling girl behind
9
Oh his darling girl behind
10
She went down to a tailor shop and dressed in man's array
11
And step on board a vessel to convey herself away
12
Oh convey herself away
13
Before you get on board sir, your name we'd like to know
14
She smiled on her countenance, they called me Jack-A-Roe
15
Oh they called me Jack-A-Roe
16
Your waist is slender, your fingers neat and small
17
Your cheeks too red and rosy to face the cannonball
18
Oh to face the cannonball
19
I know my waist's is slender, my fingers they are small
20
it would not make me tremble to see ten thousand fall
21
Oh to see ten thousand fall
22
The war soon being over they haunted all around
23
among the dead and dieing her darling boy she found
24
Oh her darling boy she found
25
She picked him up on in her arms and carried him to the town
26
and sent for a physician to quickly heal his wounds
27
Oh to quickly heal his wounds
28
This couple they got married and well they did agree
29
This couple they got married so why not you and me?
30
Oh why not you and me?
31
Oh why not you and me?
