The Golden Vanity

Lyrics

There was a little ship, and she sailed upon the sea
 The name of the ship was the Golden Vanity.
 She sailed upon the low, the lonesome low
 She sailed upon the lonesome sea
 She had not been out many more weeks than three
 When she was overtaken by the Turkish Revelry
 Sailing on the low, the lonesome low
 She sailed upon the lonesome sea
 Then up spoke a little cabin boy
 Saying "What will you give me if I will them destroy?"
 If I sink her in the low, lonesome low
 Sink her in the lonesome sea
 "The man who them destroys", the captain then replied
 "It's five thousand pounds and my daughter for your bride"
 If you sink them in the low, lonesome low
 Sink them in the lonesome sea
 The boy smote his breast, and down jumped he
 He swam until he came to the Turkish Revelry
 Sailing on the low, lonesome low
 Sailing on the lonesome sea
 He had a little tool, made for the use
 He bored nine holes in her hull all at once
 He sank her in the low, lonesome low
 He sank her in the lonesome ocean
 He swam back to the ship, he beat upon the side
 Crying "Captain pick me up, I'm waving with the tide"
 "I'm sinking in the low, lonesome low
 Sinking in the lonesome sea"
 "I will not pick you up", the Captain then replied
 "I'll shoot you, I'll drown you, I'll sink you in the tide
 I'll sink you in the low, lonesome low,
 Sink you in the lonesome sea"
 "I'll sink you in the low, lonesome low
 Sink you in the lonesome sea"
