Oh ei di die di die di die ... etc. When we return in victory it’s to the pub I’m led I’ll toast to our sweet success and down a foamy head but it matters not what fills my mug no ale or beer can quench ‘cause they are not the drink I crave and I’m a thirsty wench Oh ei di die di die di die ... etc. My favorite way to celebrate is to head straight for the shore the sailors there are trim and taut and always wanting more I’ll find a sailor willing the finest I can get his ship is not all I’ll board or all that will get wet Oh ei di die di die di die ... etc. When we come home at last rest from fights long and ventures brave I find the nearest tavern playing the music that I crave my spirits all are roused again when notes begin to flow so I’ll take the piper home with me and show him how to blow Oh ei di die di die di die ... etc. At the end of a long mission when weariness I feel I hie myself off to home for a fresh, hot, steamy meal I’ll invite a friend to join me she’s my favorite to have about ‘cause he’ll never let me cook for him she’d rather eat out Oh ei di die di die di die ... etc.

Well, when I was a lad in a fishin' town An old man said to me: You can spend your life, your jolly life Just sailin' on the sea You can search the world for pretty girls Till your eyes are weak and dim But, don't go swimmin' with a mermaid, son If you don't know how to swim. Her hair is green as seaweed, her skin is blue and pale Her face it is a work of art You can love that girl with all your heart But you're only gonna like the upper part You will not like the tail So I signed on to a pirate ship And me very first day at sea I saw a mermaid in the waves, Reachin' out for me Come live with me in the sea she said Upon the ocean floor I'll show you a million wond'rous things That you've never seen before. So, o’er I jumped and she pulled me down Down to her seaweed bed And betwixt her clams and pearly shells, She laid me weary head She kissed me soft and deeply and anywhere I’d wish From her crown to her waist she was just my taste, But the rest of her was a fish! All: Her hair was green as seaweed, Her skin was blue and pale Her face it was a work of art I loved that girl with all me heart But I only liked the upper part I did not like the tail Well, then one day she swam away and left me blue and cold How I missed her firm and perfect tits the bits I liked to hold but then her sister she swam by And she set me heart a-whirl, 'Cause her upper part was an ugly fish But the bottom part was a girl Her skin is pink and rosy Her legs are smooth and pale Her thighs they are a work of art I love that girl with all me heart And I don't give a damn about the upper part ‘Cause now I’m getting tail!

We tender young maids, have been courted by many Of all sorts and trades as ever was any.
