|
Lowlands, lowlands away my John |
|
my old mother wrote to me |
|
my dollar and a half a day |
|
She told a me to come home from sea |
|
Lowlands, lowlands away my John |
|
Five dollars a day is white man's pay |
|
my dollar and a half a day. |
|
Dollar and a half is black man's pay. |
|
Lowlands, lowlands away my John |
|
I had a dream the other night |
|
my dollar and a half a day |
|
I dreamed I was coming home from sea |
|
Lowlands, lowlands away my John |
|
my old mother wrote to me |
|
my dollar and a half a day |
|
She told a me to come home from sea |
