Oh, there was a merchant, in london he did dwell.
He had a lovely daughter, the truth to you tell,
Oh, the to you I'll tell.

She had a-plenty and men of high degree.
There was none but jackie frazier, her love e'er to be,
Oh, her true e'er to be.

"oh daughter, oh daughter, your body I confine.
If none but jack the sailor would ever suit mind,
Oh, would ever suit mind.

"this you may imprison, my heart you can't confine.
There's none but jack the sailor have this heart of mine,
Oh, would this heart of mine.

To leave his native and his darling girl behind,

She went into the tailor shop and in men's array,
Then she went into the vessel to convey away,

Your cheeks too red and for to face the cannonball,

But they would not make me tremble for to see ten fall,
Oh, to see ten fall."

The war soon being over, they all around.
Among the dead and dying her love she found,
Oh, her love she found.

And sent for her physician to quickly his wounds,
Oh, to quickly his wounds.

This couple, they got married, so they did agree,
This couple got married, so why not you and me,
Oh, so why not you and me.
