My Willie sailed on board a tender And where he is I do not know Seven long years I've been constantly waiting Since he crossed the Bay of Biscay-O One night as Mary lay a-sleeping A knock came to her bedroom door Saying “Arise arise my dearest Mary For to earn one glance of your Willie-O” Mary arose put on her clothing And to her bedroom door did go And there she saw her Willie standing His two pale cheeks as white as snow O Willie dear where are those blushes Those blushes I knew long years ago O Mary dear the cold waves lash them I am the ghost of your Willie-O But Mary dear the dawn is breaking I fear it’s time for me to go I must leave you cold and broken hearted For to cross the Bay of Biscay-O If I had gold and I had money And all the silver in Mexico I would grant it all to the King of Erin For to bring me back my Willie-O
