The Captain's Daughter (Johnny Cash: Forever Words)
Alison Krauss & Union Station
I'm a poor boy as you know But I love the Captain's daughter so If I begged her would she go? Or would she tell me no, no, no, no, no
Daddy is a sailor man Your fresh from the farm land He said when you ask my hand For me to tell you no, no, no, no, no
Your daddy's gone away to sea You're as lovely as can be Come and go away with me Oh, don't you tell me no, no, no, no, no
My daddy owns a clipper ship He brings me pearls on every trip Pink champagne for me to sip And you're the poorest boy I know, know, know, know, know
I've got no pearls to give you I've got two arms and heart that's true We could start with a dream or two Oh won't you say you'll go, go
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com The poor boy came from the farm land She was the daughter of a sailor man The Captain says 'When he begs your hand You better tell him no, no, no, no, no'
She said 'Papa don't you worry please The poor begs me upon his knees I'd never leave this life of ease' And with the poor boy goes
The captain kissed her and he went to sea The poor boy said 'Go away with me You're lonely and you shouldn't be Oh, don't you tell me no, no, no, no, no'
My daddy owns a clipper ship He brings me pearls on every trip Pink champagne for me to sip And you're the poorest boy I know, know, know, know, know
Your daddy's given you a home But you've got nobody when he is gone I'll go and leave you all alone If the answer is still no, no
