| [00:05.74] | There was a wealthy merchant, |
| [00:07.99] | In London he did dwell |
| [00:11.07] | He had a lovely daughter, |
| [00:13.71] | The truth to you I'll tell |
| [00:17.62] | Oh the truth to you I'll tell |
| [00:21.50] | |
| [00:24.05] | She had sweethearts a-plenty |
| [00:27.16] | And men of high degree |
| [00:30.64] | There was none but Jack the sailor, |
| [00:34.00] | Her true love e'er could be |
| [00:39.71] | Oh her true love e'er could be |
| [00:40.80] | |
| [00:42.07] | Now Jackie's gone a-sailing |
| [00:45.05] | With trouble on his mind |
| [00:47.34] | To leave his native country |
| [00:49.05] | And his darling girl behind |
| [00:51.33] | Oh, his darling girl behind. |
| [00:58.78] | She went into a tailor shop |
| [01:01.69] | And dressed in men's array |
| [01:05.77] | And stepped on board a vessel |
| [01:09.06] | To convey herself away |
| [01:10.35] | Oh, to convey herself away. |
| [01:14.62] | "Before you step on board, sir, |
| [01:17.64] | Your name I'd like to know" |
| [01:21.24] | She smiled all in her countenance, |
| [01:26.18] | "They call me Jackaroe" |
| [01:28.62] | Oh, they call me Jackaroe. |
| [01:32.61] | "Your waist is light and slender, |
| [01:34.75] | Your fingers are neat and small |
| [01:38.38] | Your cheeks too red and rosy |
| [01:40.86] | To face the cannonball" |
| [01:44.36] | Oh, to face the cannon-ball. |
| [01:48.07] | "I know my waist is slender, |
| [01:51.10] | My fingers neat and small |
| [01:53.66] | But it would not make me tremble |
| [02:00.21] | To see ten thousand fall" |
| [02:02.08] | Oh, to see ten thousand fall. |
| [02:05.72] | The war soon being over, |
| [02:07.86] | They hunted all around |
| [02:11.16] | And among the dead and dying |
| [02:16.90] | Her darling boy she found |
| [02:20.98] | Oh, her darling boy she found. |
| [02:21.83] | |
| [02:23.37] | She picked him up all in her arms |
| [02:24.71] | And carried him to the town |
| [02:26.18] | And sent for a physician who |
| [02:28.66] | Quickly healed his wounds |
| [02:31.95] | Oh, who quickly healed his wounds. |
| [02:36.34] | This couple they got married |
| [02:38.43] | And well they did agree |
| [02:41.71] | This couple they got married, |
| [02:44.45] | So why not you and me |
| [02:47.51] | Oh, so why not you and me. |
