The House Carpenter - Doc Watson
We've met we've met my old true love

We've met we've met said he

I've just returned from the salt salt sea

And it's all for the love of thee

I could have married the King's daughter fair

She would have married me

But I've forsaken her crown of gold

And it's all for the love of thee

Come in come in my old true love

Come in she said to him

For it's been three fourths of a long long year

Since together we have been

No I can't come in nor I can't sit down

For I have but a moment's time

And they say that
you're married to a house carpenter

And your heart will never be mine

Will you come with me my old true love

Oh come with me said he

And I'll take you to where the grass grows green

On the banks of Bittery

Then she picked up her sweet little babe

And kisses she gave it three

Sayin stay at home my darlin little babe

And keep your papa company

Then he jumped on a milk white steppe

And her on a dapple grey

They rode until they came to the banks of a sea
Three hours before the break of day

They had not been on the ship two weeks

I'm sure it was not three

Until his true love began to weep and to mourn

And she wept most bitterly

Oh is it for my silver you weep

Is it for my store

Or is it for that house carpenter

Whose face you'll never see no more

It's neither for you silver I weep

And neither for your store

But it's all for the sake of my sweet little babe

Whose face I'll never see no more

Then a curse a curse to the sailor she cried

A curse a curse she swore

You've robbed me of my house carpenter

Whose face I'll never see no more

They had not been on the ship three weeks

I'm sure it was not four

Till they sprang a leak in the bottom of the ship
And it sunk for to rise no more
