Never Will Marry Lyrics

One morning I rambleddown by the sea shore,

and the wind it did whistle,

and the waves they did roar.

I heard some fair maiden

give a terrible cry,

and it sounded so lonely,

and it swept up so high.

Said William to Molly,

if you will agree

to give your consent, love,

and marry me.

For my mind is to marry

and never to part.

For the first time I saw you,



you wounded my heart.

Go away from me William

and leave me alone,

cause I'm just a poor girl

and a long way from home.

No, I never will marry

nor be no man's wife.

I'm content to live single

all the days of my life.

The shoal in the ocean

will be my death bed,

with the fish in deep water

swimmin' over my head.

She cast her fair body

in the water so deep

and she closed her bonny-blue eyes,

forever to sleep.
