The House Carpenter - Clarence Ashley
Well met well met said an old true love
Well met well met said he
I just returned from the salt salt sea
And it's all for the love of thee
Come in come in my own true love
And have a seat with me
It's been three-fourths of a long long year
Since together we have been
Well I can't come in or I can't sit down
For I've but a moment's time
They say you're married to a house carpenter
And your heart will never be mine
That I could have married a King's daughter fair
I'm sure she'd married me
But I've forsaken her crowns of gold
And it's all for the love of thee
Now we you forsake your house carpenter
And go along with me
I'll take you where the grass grows green
On the banks of the deep blue sea
She picked up a little babe
And kisses she gave it three
Saying Stay right here my dalring little baby
And keep your pappa company
Well they had been on the ship about two weeks
I'm sure it was not three
Till his true love began to weep and to mourn
We most bitterly
Saying Are you weeping for my silver and my gold
Saying Are you weeping for my store
Are you weeping for that house carpenter
Whose face you'll never see any more
Lord I'm not weeping for your silver and your gold
Are you needed for your store
I am weeping for my darling little babe
Whose face you'll never see any more
Well they had not been on the ship about three weeks
I'm sure it was not four
Tell it's brand a leak in the bottom of the ship
And sank them for to rise no more
