Three men's all there were, three men out at sea
Three men came aboard my ship and took my true love from me
I couldn't believe
She wanted to leave, she wanted to leaveI've loved you so long, since you were a child
I've cared for your every need I've tried to make you smile
When all the while
You wanted to leave, you wanted to leaveGo gather the guns, we'll blast them at sea
She begged for me not to shoot for my true love is here with me
And I've never loved thee
And now I must leave, and now I must leave
So go fetch a bottle of rum dear friends
And fill up my glass to the rim
For I'm not the man, I used to be
Now I'm one of them
