[00:00:00] The Roving Kind - The Weavers/Helen Carter

[00:00:02] Written by：Cavanaugh/Stanton

[00:00:05] As I cruised out one evening

[00:00:07] Upon a night's career

[00:00:10] I spied a lofty clipper ship

[00:00:12] And to her I did steer

[00:00:14] I heisted out my signals

[00:00:17] Which she so quickly knew

[00:00:19] And when she saw my bunting fly

[00:00:22] She immediately hove to woo woo

[00:00:25] She had a dark and rovin' eye

[00:00:29] And her hair hung down in ringlets

[00:00:32] She was a nice girl a proper girl but

[00:00:37] One of the rovin' kind

[00:00:40] Oh pardon me she says to me

[00:00:42] For being out so late

[00:00:44] But if my parents heard of this

[00:00:46] All sad would be my fate

[00:00:49] My father is in politics

[00:00:51] A good and righteous man

[00:00:53] My mother is an acrobat

[00:00:56] I do the best I can

[00:01:00] She had a dark and rovin' eye

[00:01:03] And her hair hung down in ringlets

[00:01:07] She was a nice girl a proper girl but

[00:01:11] One of the rovin' kind

[00:01:29] I took her for some fish and chips

[00:01:31] And treated her so fine

[00:01:33] And hardly did I realize

[00:01:35] She was the rovin' kind

[00:01:38] I kissed her lips I missed her lips

[00:01:40] And found to my surprise

[00:01:42] She was nothin' but a pirate ship

[00:01:45] Rigged up in a disguise

[00:01:49] She had a dark and rovin' eye

[00:01:53] And her hair hung down in ringlets

[00:01:56] She was a nice girl a proper girl but

[00:02:01] One of the rovin' kind

[00:02:03] So come all you good sailor men

[00:02:06] Who sail the wintry sea

[00:02:08] And come all you apprentice lads

[00:02:11] A warnin' take from me

[00:02:13] Beware of lofty clipper ships

[00:02:15] They'll be the ruin of you

[00:02:17] For 'twas there she made me walk the plank

[00:02:20] And pushed me under too

[00:02:24] She had a dark and rovin' eye

[00:02:27] And her hair hung down in ringlets

[00:02:31] She was a nice girl a proper girl but

[00:02:35] One of the rovin' kind
