Unfortunate Tailor - Martin Carthy/Dave Swarbrick

Oh list oh list to me sorrowful lay

And attention give to my song I pray

When you've heard it all you will say

There goes an unfortunate tailor

Oh once I was happy as a bird in a tree

My Sarah was all in the world to me

Now I'm cut out by a son of the sea

She's left me here to bewail her

Why did Sarah serve me so

No more will I stitch and no more will I sew

Thimble and my needle to the winds I'll throw

And I'll go and list for a sailor

Oh my Sarah was the daughter of a publican

A generous kind hearted sort of a man

Who spoke very plain what he thought of a man

And he never looked bad on the tailor

Oh my days were honey and my nights were the same

Till a man named Cobb from the ocean came

Great long beard and his mighty frame

Captain on board of a whaler

And he spent his money both frank and free

With his tales of the land and his songs of the sea

Stole me Sarah's heart from me

And he blighted the hopes of a tailor

He come swaggering down this captain Cobb

Avast he cries you blubbery swab

If you don't knock off I'll scuttle your knob

Sarah smiled to the sailor

So now I'll 'cross this raging sea

For Sarah's who proved untrue to me

My heart's locked up and she's the key

Such a very unfeeling gaoler

Oh now kind friends I'll bid you adieu

No more my woes will trouble you

Travel the country through and through

I'll go and list for a sailor
