I heard a fair daGmsel make a pitiful soFund
It sounded so lonCesome in the Gwaters Caround
[Chorus]
CI never will Gmarry or be no man's Fwife
I expect to live sCingle all the Gdays of my Clife
The shells in the oGcean shall be my deatFhbed
The fish in deep wCater swim Gover my Chead
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
She plunged her fair bGody in the ocean so Fdeep

My love's gone and leGft me, the one I aFdore
She's gone where I nCever will Gsee her any Cmore
[Chorus]
CI never will Gmarry or be no man's Fwife
I expect to live sCingle all the Gdays of my Clife
The shells in the oGcean shall be my deatFhbed
The fish in deep wCater swim Gover my Chead
