As I came down the Sandgate, I heard a lassie sing. O! merry may the keel row, The ship that my love’s in! My love he wears a bonnet, A snawy rose upon it, A dimple on his chin. O! merry may the keel row, The ship that my love’s in! And soon I learnt her lover, Had landed from the Rover, And joined her in the strain. O! merry may the keel row, The ship that my love’s in!
