I never will marry

G D G C

I never will merry. I'll be no mans wife.

G D G C

I intend to stay single, for the rest of my life.

The shells in the ocean will be my deathbed,

and the fish in the ocean, swim over my head.

I never will merry...

My love's gone and left me, he's the one I adore.

I never will see him, no never no more.

I never will merry...

She plunged her fair body in the water so deep,

she closed her pretty blue eyes, in the water to sleep.

||: I never will merry... :||

Sangen er skrevet i det 19 århundrede og handler om en pige der, efter at kæresten har forladt hende, hopper i havet.
