The Made on the Shore

There was a fair maid and she lived all alone
 She lived all alone on the shore
 No one could she find for to calm her sweet mind
 But to wander alone on the shore, shore, shore
 To wander alone on the shore
 There was a brave captain who sailed a fine ship
 And the weather being steady and fair
 I shall die, I shall die, this dear captain did cry
 If I can't have that maid on the shore, shore, shore
 If I can't have that maid on the shore
 After many persuasions they brought her on board
 He seated her down on his chair
 He invited her down to his cabin below
 Farewell to all sorrow and care
 Farewell to all sorrow and care
 ♪
 I'll sing you a song, this fair maid did cry
 This captain was weeping for joy
 She sang it so sweetly, so soft and completely
 She sang the captain and sailors to sleep
 Captain and sailors to sleep
 
 She robbed them of jewels, she robbed them of wealth
 She robbed them of costly fine fare
 The captain's broadsword she used as an oar
 She rowed her way back to the shore, shore, shore
 She rowed her way back to the shore
 Oh the men, they were mad and the men, they were sad
 They were deeply sunk down in despair
 To see her go away with her booty so gay
 The rings and her things and her fine fare
 The rings and her things and her fine fare
 ♪
 Well, don't be so sad and sunk down in despair
 And you should have known me before
 I sang you to sleep and I robbed you of wealth
 Well, again I'm a maid on the shore, shore, shore
 Again I'm a maid on the shore
