Letters from Sea Lyrics
My husband went to sea,six long months ago
His furtune for to find and i long to see him so,
Then one fine day a met a sailor out on leave,
He'd met my husband dear and this letter he recieved.
My dearest wife my dear,
I think we have been at sea for a bit to long my dear,
I now feel wary and the group calls me Mary and i sleep each night in fear,
Yesterday i caught em staring at my bottom,
I will come back when i can,
I love to fornicate for sex is great,
But not with another man.
Several weeks had past,I could not remain merry
Because of lived in fear, For my husbands cherry,
And to my great relief good tidings for this day,
I met another sailor and a second letter came.
My dearest wife my dear,
I know that we have been at sea for far to long i dread,
For the piyus paster and the vast quartermaster,
Sleep in the same bunk bed
Oh Renergade roy the cabin boy, Has locked himself below,
I will leave when i can when we next find land,
And i find my way back home
Several months had passed my passion had a burn,
To see my husband dear awaiting his return,
When much to my surprise there came another boat,
And another sailor, Yahoo, ferrying another note
My dearest wife my dear,
I think that we will remain at sea for a few more months do to tell
Tho the second mate thinks i'm great and we hit it off quite well
In a drunken mist i couldn't resist when the rum passed round i went
Oh the sex is rif in a sailors life if your in this remenant
My husband dear
I think that you should stay at sea,
For the streuth is truth i tell,
For on your return the house i'll burn and i send you straight to hell
So all young wives and newly wives do heed this sorry song, You cant compete with the men of the fleet,
When your husbands away too long
