There's a partial version of this traditional song in the Digital Tradition but it's missing at least two verses. This is the way my family used to sing it, probably picked up from the Carter Family Recording in the 1930's (copy and paste into WORD/TIMES/12 to line up chords):

SAILOR ON THE DEEP BLUE SEA

-------G-------------------C
It was on one summer's evening
------G---------------D7
Just about the hour of three
-----------------G-----------------C
When my true love went for to leave me
----G----------D7--------G
To sail on the deep blue sea.

Oh, he promised to write me a letter;
He said he'd be true to me,
But I've not heard from my darling
Who is sailing on the deep blue sea.

Oh, my mother's dead and buried;
My father's forsaken me,
And I have no one for to love me
But the sailor on the deep blue sea.

"Oh, Captain, can you tell me,
Can you tell me where can my sailor be?"
"Oh yes, my little maiden,
He is drownded in the deep blue sea."

Farewell to friends and relations .
It's the last you'll see of me,
For I'm going to end my troubles
By drownding in the deep blue sea.

"Charley on the MTA" is the most familiar parody of this song.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
