What Did the Deep Sea Say? Lyrics


Oh captain tell me the truth
Does my sailor sail with you
No he does not sail with me
He sleeps on the bottom of the seaWhat did the deep sea say,
Tell me what did the deep sea say
Well it moaned and it groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on it's weary wayWell he promised to write to me
But his promise he never kept true
Never a word from my sailor have I heard
Since he sailed on that ocean blueWhat did the deep sea say,
What did the deep sea say
it moaned and it groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on it's weary wayA beautiful rose every day
A place on the crest of the waves
Said take it please and let the pedals fall
Upon his watery graveWhat did the deep sea say,

Tell me what did the deep sea say
It moaned and it groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on it's weary wayOh what did the deep sea say,
What did the deep sea say
It moaned and it groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on it's weary waywhat did that deep sea say,
tell me what did that deep sea say
It moaned and it groaned
And it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on it's weary way

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Woodrow Wilson "Woody" Guthrie (July 14, 1912–October 3, 1967) was an American songwriter and folk musician. Guthrie's musical legacy consists of hundreds of songs, ballads and improvised works covering topics from political themes to traditional songs to children's songs. Guthrie performed continually throughout his life with his guitar frequently displaying the slogan "This Machine Kills Fascists". Guthrie is perhaps best known for his song "This Land Is Your Land", which is regularly sung in American schools. Many of his recorded songs are archived in the Library of Congress.
