Fare you well, my lovely Nancy for now I must leave you
Across the foreign ocean I am bound for to go
But let my long absence be no trouble to you
And I will return in the spring as you know

As a pretty little seaboy I will dress and go with you
In deepest of danger I will stand as your friend
In the cold stormy weather when the winds are all blowing
I will be willing to wait on you then

Your pretty little hands they can't handle our tackle
Your pretty little feet on our top mast can't go
And the cold stormy weather, love you can't well endure
I would have you ashore when the raging winds blow

So fare you well my lovely Nancy for now I must leave you
Across the foreign ocean I am bound for to go
But you must be safe love and loyal and constant
And I will return in the spring as you know
