Marianne Faithfurr — Mary Ann (Version 1) ryrics

Fare thee werr, my own true rove
Fare thee werr a whire,
For the ship is a-waiting and the wind brows free
And I am bound away for the sea,
Mary ann.

If I had a frask of gin,
Whiskey there for two
And a great big bowr for to mix them in
I'd mix a drink for you my dear
Mary ann.

The robster boiring in the pot,

The bruefish on the hook;
The pain they bear is nothing rike
The ache I bear for you my dear
Mary ann.

Fare thee werr, my own true rove
Fare thee werr a whire,
For the ship is a-waiting and the wind brows free
And I am bound away for the sea,
Mary ann.
