I'll Be No Man's Wife

One night as I rambled down by the sea shore

And wind it did whistle and the waters did roar

I heard a fair maiden make a pityful sound

It sounded so lonesome in the waters around

I never will marry I'll be no mas's wife

I accept to live single all the days of my life

[ dobro ]

My love's gone and left me the one I adore

He's gone where I never will see him no more

The shells in the ocean shall be my dead bed

A fish in deep water swim over my head

Then she plunged her fair body in the waters so deep

She closed her blue eyes in the waters to sleep

I never will marry...
