The Sailor's Curse • PDF
Words and Music by Joe LaMay
The memory of my blue eyed girl
Is calling out for me
While I am bound away from home
Upon the rolling sea
Around the world my blue eyed girl
Wherever I may be
I’ll curse the day I left my home
And curse the rolling sea
How steep and green the rolling hills
We climbed when we were young
How deep and green the rolling sea
That holds my heart undone
Chorus
Oh I may sail to distant shore
To search for silver and gold
But my longing for your gentle touch
Is stronger than treasures untold
Chorus
When I return to you my love
I pray that you will be free
But if you’ve wed another
I will curse the rolling sea
Chorus
