Oh Captain, tell me true
Does my sailor sail with you?
"No, he does not sail with me,
He sleeps on the bottom of the sea."
What did the deep sea say?
Tell me, what did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned, and it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
Well, he promised he'd write to me
But his promise he never kept true
Never a word from a sailor have I heard
Since he sailed on that ocean blue
What did the deep sea say?
What did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned, and it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
A beautiful rose every day
I place on the crest of the waves
Said, "Take it please, and let the petals fall
Above his watery grave."
What did the deep sea say?
Tell me, what did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned, and it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
Oh, what did the deep sea say?
What did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned, and it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
What did the deep sea say?
Tell me, what did the deep sea say?
It moaned and groaned, and it splashed and it foamed
And it rolled on its weary way
