作曲：Traditional

Well it's all of fair and handsome girl

She's all in her tender years

She fell in love with a sailor boy

It's true she loved him well

For to go off to sea with him

Like she did not know how

She longed to see that seaport town

Of Canadee-i-o

So she bargained with the sailor boy

All for a piece of gold

Straightaway then he led her

Down into the hold

Saying I'll dress you up in sailor's clothes

Your jacket shall be blue

You'll see that seaport town

Of Canadee-i-o

Now when the other sailors heard the news

Well they fell into a rage

And with all the ship's company

They were willing to engage

Saying We'll tie her hands and feet my boys

Overboard we'll throw her

She'll never see that seaport town

Called Canadee-i-o

Now when the captain he heard the news

Well he too fell in a rage

And with the whole ship's company

He was willing to engage

Saying She'll stay in sailor's clothes

Her color shall be blue

She'll see that seaport town

Call Canadee-i-o

Now when they come down to Canada

Scarcely about half a year

She's married this bold captain

Who called her his dear

She's dressed in silks and satins now

She cuts a gallant show

Finest of the ladies

Down Canadee-i-o

Come all you fair and tender girls

Wheresoever you may be

I'd have you to follow your own true love

Whenever he goes to sea

For if the sailors prove false to you

Well the captain he might prove true

You'll see the honor I have gained

By the wearing of the blue
