    Lyrics:

    Well met, well met, my own true love
    Well met, well met”, cried he
    “I’ve just returned from the salt, salt sea
    All for the love of thee”
    “I could have married the King’s daughter, dear
    She would have married me
    But I have forsaken her crowns of gold
    All for the love of thee”
    “Well, if you could have married the King’s daughter, dear
    I’m sure you are to blame
    For I am married to a house carpenter
    And find him a nice young man”
    “Oh, will you forsake your house carpenter
    And go along with me?
    I’ll take you to where the grass grows green
    To the banks of the salt, salt sea”
    “Well, if I should forsake my house carpenter
    And go along with thee
    What have you got to maintain me on
    And keep me from poverty?”
    “Six ships, six ships all out on the sea
    Seven more upon dry land
    One hundred and ten all brave sailor men
    Will be at your command”
    She picked up her own wee babe
    Kisses gave him three
    Said, “Stay right here with my house carpenter
    Keep him good company”
    Well, they’d not been gone but about two weeks
    I know it was not three
    When this fair lady began to weep
    She wept most bitterly
