Canadee-i-o
trad. arr. by Dylan
4/4

A                           D
Well it's all of a fair and handsome girl
      A            E         A
She's all in her tender years,
                                   D
she fell in love with a sailor boy
      A                     E
It's true she loves him well
       D                  A
For to go off to sea with him
                          E
Like she did not know how
A             E        A           D
She longed to see that seaport town
A      D          A
Of Canadee-i--o----

So she bargained with the sailor boy,
All for a piece of gold
Straightaway then he led her,
Down into the hold
Saying, I'll dress you up in sailor's clothes,
Your jacket shall be blue
You'll see that seaport town, of Canadee-i-o

Now, when the other sailor's heard the news,
Well they fell into a rage
And with all the ship's company
They were willing to engage
Saying, We'jj tie her hands and feet, my boys
Overboard we'll throw her
She'll never see that seaport town, called Canadee-i-o

Now, when the caiptain heard the news
Well, he too fell in a rage
And with the whole ship's company
He was willing to engage
Saying, she'll stay in sailor's clothes
Her color shall be blue
She'll see that seaport town, called Canadee-i-o

Now, when they come down to Canada
Scarcely 'bout half a year,
She's married this bold captain
Who called her his dear
She's dressed in silk and satins now
She cuts a gallent show
Finest of the ladies, down Canadee-i-o

Come, all you fair and tender girls
Wheresoever you may be
I'd have you to follow your own true love
Whenever he goes to see
For if the sailors prove false to you
Well, the captain, he might prove true
You'll see the honor I have gained
By wearing of the blue
