The Roving Kind - The Weavers/Helen Carter

Written by：Cavanaugh/Stanton

As I cruised out one evening

Upon a night's career

I spied a lofty clipper ship

And to her I did steer

I heisted out my signals

Which she so quickly knew

And when she saw my bunting fly

She immediately hove to woo woo

She had a dark and rovin' eye

And her hair hung down in ringlets

She was a nice girl a proper girl but

One of the rovin' kind

Oh pardon me she says to me

For being out so late

But if my parents heard of this

All sad would be my fate

My father is in politics

A good and righteous man

My mother is an acrobat

I do the best I can

She had a dark and rovin' eye

And her hair hung down in ringlets

She was a nice girl a proper girl but

One of the rovin' kind

I took her for some fish and chips

And treated her so fine

And hardly did I realize

She was the rovin' kind

I kissed her lips I missed her lips

And found to my surprise

She was nothin' but a pirate ship

Rigged up in a disguise

She had a dark and rovin' eye

And her hair hung down in ringlets

She was a nice girl a proper girl but

One of the rovin' kind

So come all you good sailor men

Who sail the wintry sea

And come all you apprentice lads

A warnin' take from me

Beware of lofty clipper ships

They'll be the ruin of you

For 'twas there she made me walk the plank

And pushed me under too

She had a dark and rovin' eye

And her hair hung down in ringlets

She was a nice girl a proper girl but

One of the rovin' kind
