Текст песни My Johnny Was a Shoemaker - The John Renbourn Group

My Johnny was a shoemaker and dearly he loved me
My Johnny was a shoemaker but now he's gone to sea
With nasty tar to soil his hands
And sail across the briny sea
My Johnny was a shoemaker

His jacket was a deep sky blue and curly was his hair
His jacket was a deep sky blue and curly was his hair
To reef the topsails he has gone
To sail across the briny sea
My Johnny was a shoemaker

A captain he will be by and by
With a brave and gallant crew
A captain he will be by and by
With a sword and spy-glass too

And when he gets a ship of his own
He'll come back and marry me
My Johnny was a shoemaker

And when I am a captain's wife
I'll sing the whole day long
Yes, when I am a captain's wife
Then this will be my song
May peace and plenty bless our days
And little ones upon my knee
My Johnny was a shoemaker
