Lyrics The Golden Vanity - Pete Seeger
There
was
a
lofty
ship,
and
she
put
out
to
sea
And
the
name
of
the
our
ship
was
the
Golden
Vanity
And
she
sailed
upon
the
low
and
lonesome
low
As
she
sailed
upon
the
lonesome
sea
We
had
not
been
out
but
two
weeks
or
three
When
we
were
overtaken
by
the
Turkish
Revelee
As
we
sailed
upon
the
low
and
lonesome
low
As
we
sailed
upon
the
lonesome
sea
The
quickly
up
spoke
our
little
cabin
boy
Sayin',
"What
will
you
give
me
if
I
will
them
destroy
If
I
sink
'em
in
the
low
and
lonesome
low
If
I
sink
'em
in
the
lonesome
sea?"
The
man
that
them
destroy,"
our
captain
then
replied
"Five
thousand
pounds
and
my
daughter
for
his
bride
If
he
sink
'em
in
the
low
and
lonesome
low
If
he
sink
'em
in
the
lonesome
sea"
Then
the
boy
he
smote
his
chest
and
overboard
jumped
he
And
he
swum
till
he
came
to
the
Turkish
Revelee
As
they
sailed
upon
the
low
and
lonesome
low
As
they
sailed
upon
the
lonesome
sea
Now
he
had
a
little
tool
that
was
made
for
the
use
And
he
bored
three
holes
in
her
side
all
at
once
And
he
sunk
her
in
the
low
and
lonesome
low
And
he
sunk
her
in
the
lonesome
sea
Then
he
swam
back
to
the
ship
and
he
beat
upon
the
side
Sayin',
"Captain,
pick
me
up,
for
I'm
drifting
with
the
tide
And
I'm
sinking
in
the
low
and
lonesome
low
And
I'm
sinkin'
in
the
lonesome
sea"
"I
will
not
pick
you
up,"
the
Captain
then
replied
"I'll
shoot
you,
I'll
drown
you,
I'll
sink
you
in
the
tide
And
I'll
sink
you
in
the
low
and
lonesome
low
And
I'll
sink
you
in
the
lonesome
sea"
Then
the
boy
he
took
his
tool;
in
our
side
he
bored
holes
three
Saying,
"Captain,
I'll
take
you
with
me
to
the
bottom
of
the
sea
And
I'll
sink
you
in
the
low
and
lonesome
low
And
I'll
sink
you
in
the
lonesome
sea"
And
we
sank
into
the
lonesome
sea
And
we
sank
into
the
lonesome
sea
