My Mom and I sang this song together. What I know is:
A girl and a Sailor were parting one day.
He brushed back her teardrops and kissed them away.                     I wish I could stay here. She cried soft and low.
"But duty is calling, and now I go.

Farewell,your blonde Sailor must leave for a while dear.
Farewell, send him off with a kiss and a smile.
All my love and devotion, I will leave in your care.
Farewell my sweet darling, Your blonde Sailor must go.

I know this is late but hope it helps you.
Sylvia
