作词 : Traditional
My Johnny was a shoemaker and dearly he loved me,
My Johnny was a shoemaker but now he’s gone to sea
With nasty tar to soil his hands
And sail across the briny sea-e-e-e —
My Johnny was a shoemaker.

His jacket was a deep sky blue and curly was his hair,
His jacket was a deep sky blue and curly was his hair.
To reef the topsails he has gone
To sail across the briny sea-e-e-e —
My Johnny was a shoemaker.

A captain he will be by and by with a brave and gallant crew,
A captain he will be by and by, with a sword and spy-glass too.
And when he gets a ship of his own
He’ll come back and marry me-e-e-e —
My Johnny was a shoemaker.

And when I am a captain’s wife, I’ll sing the whole day long,
Yes, when I am a captain’s wife then this will be my song.
May peace and plenty bless our days
And little ones upon my knee-e-e-e —
My Johnny was a shoemaker.
