Darling, I have come to tell you 
Though it almost breaks my heart 
But before the morning darling 
We'll be many miles apart 

Don't this road look rough and rocky 
Don't that sea look wide and deep 
Don't my baby look the sweetest 
When she's in my arms asleep 

Can't you hear the night birds crying 
Far across the deep blue sea 
While of others you are thinking 
Won't you sometimes think of me 

Don't this road look rough and rocky 
Don't that sea look wide and deep 
Don't my baby look the sweetest 
When she's in my arms asleep 

One more kiss before I leave you 
One more kiss before we part 
You have caused me lots of trouble 
Darling you have broke my heart

Don't this road look rough and rocky 
Don't that sea look wide and deep 
Don't my baby look the sweetest 
When she's in my arms asleep
