Verse

Where is my sailor boy

Oh where is my sailor boy

He lies on the bottom of the deep, deep sea

And he can't come back to me

Verse

Please tell me, deep blue sea

Is he sleeping peacefully

The wind from the north is blowing icy cold

Please keep him warm for me

Chorus

What does the deep sea say

Oh what does the deep sea say

It moans, it groans, it flashes and it foams

And rolls on its weary way

Verse

I stand on the beach alone

And gaze at the misty blue

Deep sea, as you hold him to your breast

Does he mention my name to you

Verse

If only my dreaming soul

Some token of love could find

If only a wave would show me where he sleeps

Then I'd leave this world behind

Verse

A beautiful rose one day

I placed on the crest of a wave

Deep sea, take it, please, and lay it so it falls

Above his watery grave

Verse

The driftwood I watched in vain

My rose never came back again

Deep sea, take another message to my love

Saying I'll meet him above
