Oh my little darling,
You must have come come from the sea.
With all those little fishes,
Pretty as can be.
And oh my little darling,
You must have come from the ground,
With all of those little junebugs,
Crawling all around.
Oh my little darling,
You must have come from the trees.
Falling out of them branches,
Falling all over me.
And oh my little darling,
You won't be mine forever.
You weren't made for me.
You were made to be free.
And when we are parted,
Put my body in that water,
So I can sail far away.
I will sail far away.
And when we are parted,
Put my body in the ground,
So all your little junebugs,
Can crawl all around.
