Once I loved a darling seaman
And he thought the world of me
Till another girl persuaded
Now he cares no more for me
I don't want your greenback dollar
I don't want your watch and chain
All I want is your heart darling
Won't you take me back again?
Of many a strolled we took together
Down beside the deep blue sea
If it's in your heart to love another
In my grave I'd rather be
I don't want your greenback dollar
I don't want your watch and chain
It's all I want is your 22/20
Just to shoot out your dirty brain
Poppa says we cannot marry
Moma says he'll never do
If you ever learned to love me
I will run away with you
