Thread Name: Lyr Req: Mistress Moore Married to a Sailor
Subject: lyr req: Mistress Moore
I'm looking for a song I learned as a small child in school. The lyrics are: Mistress Moore lives on the shore
She has daughters three and four
Eldest one is twenty-four
Married to a sailor
When the sailors come ashore
How they rattle
How they roar
Happy then is Mistress Moore
Married to a sailor
I think there is more to it than this, but that's all I remember. I have never been able to find out anything about this song--or find the song anywhere!
