Lyrics
Oh, fare thee well, my own true love,
Oh fare thee well, my dear!
For the ship is waiting, the wind blows high
And I am bound away for the sea, Mary Ann,
And I am bound away for the sea, Mary Ann!

Oh, yonder don’t you see the dove,
A sitting on the stile?
She is mourning the loss of her own true love
As I do now for you my dear, Mary Ann,
As I do now for you, my dear, Mary Ann!

A lobster boiling in the pot,
A blue fish on the hook,
They are suffering long, but it’s nothing like
The ache I bear for you, my dear, Mary Ann,
The ache I bear for you, my dear, Mary Ann.

Oh, had I but a flask of gin
With sugar here for two.
And a great big bowl for to mix it in,
I’d pour a drink for you, my dear, Mary Ann,
I’d pour a drink for you, my dear, Mary Ann
