Unfortunately, there are so many threads relating to the song that I haven't been able to find it!

These lyrics are slightly different form the ones that I know, but I wanted to to thank you to all that contibuted to this search. To some of us memories of songs are all we have left of those we love. |

02 Nov 10 - 09:28 AM (#3021542) Subject: Lyr Add: TWO LITTLE SAILOR BOYS (Madden/Jordon) From: Jim Dixon From the sheet music at The Lester S. Levy Collection of Sheet Music (see Pavane's link above): TWO LITTLE SAILOR BOYS Words, Edward Madden. Music, Dolly Jordon. New York: Jerome H. Remick & Co., 1906. Date: 1. Two little chaps with sailor caps Played at a game of war. Two wooden chips for battle ships, Bravely they sailed from shore. One little boy reached for his toy, Fell in the deep blue sea, But his comrade true cried, "I'll rescue you, And some day you may save me." CHORUS: Don't forget when we were sailor boys, Ship ahoys, Sharin' joys. Remember then our battleships were only toys, When we were two little sailor boys. 2. Years took their flight. two ships one night Fought on the raging sea. Each captain true, leading his crew, Strove for the victory. One sinking fast clings to a mast, While from the ship nearby, The captain so brave, strikes out o'er the wave, And his comrade hears him cry. |
