Oh there was a lofty ship and she sailed on the sea
And the name of that ship it was the Golden Vanity
But she feared she would be taken by a Turkish enemy
As she sailed on the lowland lowland low
She sailed upon the lowland sea

Then up steps a cabin boy, just the age of twelve and three
And he says to the Skipper what will you give to me
If I swim alongside of your Turkish enemy
And I sink her in the lowland lowland low
I sink her in the lowland sea

Oh I will give you silver and I will give you gold
And the hand of my daughter if you will be so bold
As to swim alongside of the Turkish enemy
And to sink her in the lowland lowland low
To sink her in the lowland sea

Then the boy he made all ready and overboard jumped he
And he swam alongside of the Turkish enemy
And with his little drilling tool he boared holes three
And he sank her in the lowland lowland lowland
He sank her in the lowland sea

Then the boy he turned around and back again swam he
And he hollered for the Skipper to haul him from the sea
But the Skipper would not heed, for his daughter he did need
And he left him in the lowland lowland lowland
He left him in the lowland sea

Then the crew they hauled him out, but upon the deck he died
And they wrapped him in his blanket so very soft and wide
They cast him overboard to drift upon the tide
And he sank beneath the lowland lowland low
He sank beneath the lowland sea

Oh there is a lofty ship and she sails on the sea
But she sails without a cabin boy the age of twelve and three
and she fears she will be taken by a Turkish enemy
As she sails on the lowland lowland low
Sails on the lowland sea
