A sailor went to sea

 

A sailor went to sea, sea, sea.

To see what he could see, see, see.

But all that he could see, see, see.

Was the bottom of the deep blue

sea, sea, sea.

 

Another sailor went to sea, sea, sea.

To see what she could see, see, see.

But all that she could see, see, see.

Was the bottom of the deep blue

sea, sea, sea.

 

The sailors went to sea, sea, sea.

To see what they could see, see, see.

But all that they could see, see, see.

Was the bottom of the deep blue

sea, sea, sea.
