Oh she was a lady’s maid,
6 6 -5 -5 5 -5
I do not know her name,
-5 -5 -5 -4 -4 4 4 -5
Her master, he was kind to her,
-5 -5 5 5 -4 5
Her mistress was the same.
5 6 5 5 4 6 6 6 -5 -5 5 -5
Along came a sailor who said oh marry me,
-5 -5 -4 -4 4 -5 -5 5 5 -4 5
And now look what happened while he was at sea.

Chorus:

Bell bottom trousers, coat of navy blue,

He’ll climb the riggin like his daddy used to do.

(repeat chorus)

Verse 2:

Oh how could she know that he
Was only fooling her.
He bought the ring, the very thing
Which maidens hearts prefer.
But he had a wife way across a distant sea
The baby is bouncing on a maiden knee.
