My Johnny Is A Shoemaker

: My Johnny is a shoemaker
And he has gone to sea :
To reeve the topsail he has gone
Far cross the raging sea.


2. : His jacket is a deep sea blue
And golden is his hair :
This I know and I do declare
My Johnny is a shoemaker.


3. : A captain he’ll be bye and bye
With a brave and a gallant crew :
This I know and I do declare
My Johnny is a shoemaker.

4. : My Johnny is a shoemaker
And he has gone to sea :
To reeve the topsail he has gone
Far cross the raging sea.
