Grandpa Jones What Does The Deep Sea Say?
[Chorus]
What does the deep sea say?
What does the deep sea say?
It moans, and groans
And splashes and foams
And rolls on its weary way
[Verse 1]
Where is my sailor boy?
Where is my sailor boy?
He sleeps at the bottom of the deep blue sea
And he can't come back to me
[Verse 2]
Please tell me deep blue sea
Is he sleeping peacefully
Oh the winds from the North
Are blowing icy cold
Please keep him warm for me
[Chorus]
What does the deep sea say?
What does the deep sea say?
It holds and guard
Two lovers in sleep
And rolls on its weary way
[Verse 3]
A beautiful rose one day
I put it on the crest of a wave
I said take this rose
And let its petals fall
Above his watery grave
[Verse 4]
The driftwood I watched in vain
But my rose ne'er came back again
So waves take another
Message to my love
Sayin' I'll meet him above
[Chorus]
What does the deep sea say?
What does the deep sea say?
It holds and guard
Two lovers in sleep
And rolls on its weary way
