Jacket So Blue歌词

[00:14.370]A ship’s crew of sailors as you may understand
[00:20.020]Bound for the West Indies or some foreign land
[00:25.740]There’s one lad amongst them I wish I never knew
[00:31.000]He’s my bonnie, bonnie sailor with a jacket so blue
[00:36.520]
[00:36.770]The first time I saw my love he’d a spy glass in his hand
[00:42.870]I went to talk to him but he would not stand
[00:48.570]I went to talk to him but from me he flew
[00:53.920]And my heart it went along with him and his jacket so blue ~
[01:09.380]
[01:09.630]Says I my noble sailor I’ll buy your discharge
[01:15.770]I’ll free you from sailing and set you at large
[01:22.120]I’ll free you from that man-o-war if your heart does be true
[01:27.920]And I’d never let a stain on your jacket so blue
[01:33.460]
[01:34.010]Well said I my noble lady you’ll buy my discharge
[01:40.050]You’ll free me from sailing and set me at large
[01:45.820]You’ll free me from that man-o-war if my heart does be true
[01:51.140]Ah but then what would my own lovely Scotch lassie do
[02:21.120]
[02:21.370]For I have a lassie in my own country
[02:27.280]And I would not slight her for her poverty
[02:33.010]If I were to slight her then my heart wouldn’t be true
[02:38.280]For she never left a stain on my jacket so blue
[02:48.580]
[02:48.830]I’ll write off to Dublin to an artist of skill
[02:54.420]And I’ll have my love’s picture drawn out in its full
[03:00.100]And I’ll place it in my chamber quite close to my view
[03:05.350]And I’ll say I loved a sailor with a heart that was true ~
