The Sailor's Curse • PDF
Words and Music by Joe LaMay

The memory of my blue eyed girl
Is calling out for me
While I am bound away from home
Upon the rolling sea

Around the world my blue eyed girl
Wherever I may be
I’ll curse the day I left my home
And curse the rolling sea

How steep and green the rolling hills
We climbed when we were young
How deep and green the rolling sea
That holds my heart undone

Chorus

Oh I may sail to distant shore
To search for silver and gold
But my longing for your gentle touch
Is stronger than treasures untold

Chorus

When I return to you my love
I pray that you will be free
But if you’ve wed another
I will curse the rolling sea

Chorus
