From a barque in the harbour I went roaming on shore
F C Dm C
And stepped into a pub where I was oft times before
F Dm C Dm
And as I was sitting and enjoying my glass
Dm C C Dm C Dm C
Who chanced to walk in but a young Spanish lass
Dm C C Dm
She sat down beside me and kept squeezing my hand
F C Dm C
Saying Sir you're a stranger not long to this land
F Dm C Dm
Will you roam, Johnny Sailor, would you roam along with me
Dm C C Dm C
To some lonesome spot where nobody can see
F C Dm C
Don't you leave me Johnny Sailor were the words she did cry
Dm C F C
Waving and weeping and wiping her eyes
F C Dm C
When you reach home in your own Newfoundland
Dm C C Dm C Dm C
Think of the young Spaniard who kept squeezing your hand
Dm C C Dm
I quickly consented with her for to roam
F C Dm C
She lived by herself in a neat little home
F Dm C Dm
She was brisk, plump and jolly and her age scare nineteen
Dm C C Dm C Dm C
And the name of that maiden I think was Irene
Dm C C Dm
One fine summer's morning our ship, she set sail
F C Dm C
And down by the seashore lovely Irene she came
F Dm C Dm
Waving her pocket hankerchief and wiping her eyes
Dm C C Dm C
Don't leave me Johnny Sailor were the words she did cry
Dm C C Dm
I'll give you farewell love on a fine summer's breeze
F C Dm C
But love don't forget me when you're crossing the sea
F Dm C Dm
And when you are married and enjoying your bride
Dm C C Dm
Think on the young maiden who lay by your side
