Oh captain tell me true
Does my sailor sail with you?
No, he does not sail with me
He sleeps on the bottom of the sea
What did the deep sea say?
Tell me, what did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
Well, he promised he'd write to me
But his promise he never kept true
Never a word from my sailor have I heard
Since he sailed on that ocean blue
What did the deep sea say?
Tell me, what did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
A beautiful rose every day
I placed on the crest of the waves
Said "Take it please
And let the petals fall
Above his watery grave."
Does my sailor sail with you?
No, he does not sail with me
He sleeps on the bottom of the sea
What did the deep sea say?
Tell me, what did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
Well, he promised he'd write to me
But his promise he never kept true
Never a word from my sailor have I heard
Since he sailed on that ocean blue
What did the deep sea say?
Tell me, what did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
A beautiful rose every day
I placed on the crest of the waves
Said "Take it please
And let the petals fall
Above his watery grave."
