“Upon one summer’s morning,
I carelessly did stray
Down by the Walls of Wapping,
Where I met a sailor gayConversing with a young lass,
Who seem’d to be in pain
Saying, ‘William, when you go I fear you will ne’re be seen again’His hair it does in ringlets hang,
His eyes as black as sloes
May happiness attend him
Wherever he may goFrom Tower Hill to Blackwall,
I will wander, weep and moan
All for my jolly sailor bold
Until he does returnMy father is a merchant,
The truth I will now tell
And in great London City,
In opulence doth dwellHis fortune does exceed
Three hundred thousand pounds in gold
And he frowns upon his daughter,
‘Cause she loves a sailor boldCome all you pretty fair maids,
Whoever you may be
Who love a jolly sailor bold
That ploughs the raging seaWhile up aloft, in storm or gale,
From me his absence mourn
And firmly pray, arrive the day,
He home will safe returnMy name, it is Maria,
A merchant’s daughter fair
And I have left my parents
And three thousand pounds a yearMy heart is pierced by Cupid,
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor boldThere is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold.”

Random@Noble_6 convinced me to do this. It's his fault. But I'm committed, so fuck it. Here we are. And credit to all the art used. I don't own any of it. It's just that there are people out there who are ten times more talented than me.
