Water of Tyne
I cannot get to my love if I would dee
For the water of Tyne runs between him and me
And here I must stand with a tear in my ee
Both sighing and sickly, my true love to see
Oh where is the boatman, my bonny hinny?
Oh where is the boatman? O bring him to me
To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey
And I will remember the boatman and thee
Oh bring me a boatman, I’ll give any money
And you for your trouble rewarded shall be
To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey
Or skull him across that rough river to me
