Oh captain tell me the truth
Does my sailor sail with you
No he does not sail with me
He sleeps at the bottom of the sea
What did the deep sea say,
What did the deep sea say
Well it moaned and it growned
And it splashed and it phoned
And it rolled on it's weary way
He promised to write to me
But his promise he never kept true
Never a word from my sailor have i heard
Since he sailed on the ocean blue
What did the deep sea say,
What did the deep sea say
Well it moaned and it growned
And it splashed and it phoned
And it rolled on it's weary way
A beautiful rose of green day
I plant on the crest of the way
I say take it please
And let the pedals fall
Upon his watery grave
What did the deep sea say,
What did the deep sea say
Well it moaned and it growned
And it splashed and it phoned
And it rolled on it's weary way
