Or D#would she tell me F#no, C#no, F#no, G#no, C#no?
C#Daddy is a sailor A#mman
C#Your fresh from the farm F#land
C#He said when you ask my A#mhand
For G#me to tell you F#no, C#no, F#no, G#no, C#no

C#Your daddy's gone away to A#msea
C#You're as lovely as can F#be
C#Come and go away with A#mme
Oh, D#don't you tell me F#no, C#no, F#no, G#no, C#no
[Chorus]
My A#mdaddy owns a clipper ship
He G#brings me pearls on every trip
F#Pink champagne for me to sip
And D#you're the poorest boy I F#know, C#know, F#know, G#know, C#know

Oh D#7won't you say you'll F#go, C#go? F# G# C#

The C#Captain says 'When he begs your A#mhand
You D#better tell him F#no, C#no, F#no, G#no, C#no'
[Chorus]
She said 'A#mPapa don't you worry please
The G#poor begs me upon his knees
F#I'd never leave this life of ease'
And D#7with the poor boy goes
[Verse 4]
The C#captain kissed her and he went to A#msea
The C#poor boy said 'Go away with F#me
You're C#lonely and you shouldn't A#mbe
Oh, D#don't you tell me F#no, C#no, F#no, G#no, C#no'
[Chorus]
My A#mdaddy owns a clipper ship
He G#brings me pearls on every trip
F#Pink champagne for me to sip
And D#7you're the poorest boy I F#know, C#know, F#know, G#know, C#know
[Verse 5]
Your C#daddy's given you a A#mhome
But you've C#got nobody when he is F#gone
F#I'll go and leave you all alone
If the D#answer is still F#no, C#no, F#no, G#no, C#no
