[Verse]
On the...

night that I was married, And...
E E A (2x)
upon my marriage bed There all..

came a bold sea captain. And he...

stood at my bed-head
[Verse]
Sayin'...
E E A E
Arise, arise, young wedded man. And...
E E A (2x)
come along with me. To the...

fight the enemy.
[Verse]
Now then...
E E E A
Holland is a lovely land And

upon it grows fine grain. Sure it ..

is a place of residence. For a...

soldier to remain
[Verse]
Where the ...

sugarcane is plentiful And the...

tea grows on each tree. Well, I...

[Verse]
I will...

wear no stays around my waist. Nor..

combs all in my hair. I will...

wear no scarf around my neck. For to...
E B E
save my beauty there
[Verse]
And...

E E A (2x)
until the day I die. Since these...
E E E A
four winds and these stormy seas. Came...

between my love and I.
