Chad Mitchell Trio - The Golden Vanity lyrics

Oh, there is a lofty ship and she sails on the sea

And the name of that shippin' is the Golden Vanity

And she fears she will be taken by a Turkish enemy

A she sails on the lowland, lowland, low

She sails on the lowland sea.

Then up steps the cabin boy just the age of twelve and three

And he says to the skipper "What will you give to me

If I swim alongside of that Turkish enemy

And I sink her in the lowland, lowland, low

I sink her in the lowland sea?"

"Oh, I will give you silver, and I will give you gold

And the hand of my daughter if you would be so bold

As to swim alongside of that Turkish enemy

And to sink her in the lowland, lowland, low

To sink her in the lowland sea."

Then the boy he made all ready and overboard jumped he

And swam alongside of that Turkish enemy

And with his little drilling tool he bor-ed holes three

And he sank her in the lowland, lowland, low

He sank her in the lowland sea

Then the boy he turned about and back again swam he

And hollered for the skipper to haul him from the sea

But the skipper would not heed for his daughter he did need

And he left him in the lowland, lowland, low

He left him in the lowland sea

Oh, there is a lofty ship and she sails on the sea

But she sails without a cabinboy the age of twelve and three

And she fears she will be taken by a Turkish enemy

As she sails on the lowland, lowland, low

She sails on the lowland sea
