{i}As sung and played by Uncle Dave Macon{/i}
I'm [D]going across the sea, [G]stay forever [D]more,
[A]Left my little [G]darling, standing in the [D]door.
{i}Chorus:{/i}
{i}[D]Won't you come and go, [G]won't you come and [D]go,{/i}
{i}[A]Follow me, my [G]pretty little love, I'm going across the [D]sea.{/i}
{i}Instrumental{/i}
[D]Wind is howling low, the [G]wind is howling [D]high,
[A]Go with me, my [G]pretty little love, un-til the day I [D]die.
{i}Chorus{/i}
{i}Instrumental{/i}
[D]Wouldn't you give a nickel, [G]wouldn't you give a [D]dime,
[A]Wouldn't you give one [G]dollar bill, call your name and [D]mine.
{i}Chorus{/i}
{i}Instrumental{/i}
[D]Rose's red as cherry's, [G]cherry's red as [D]plums,
She [A]threw her arms a-[G]round my neck, thought my time had [D]come.
{i}Chorus{/i}
{i}Instrumental{/i}
[D]If I had to marry again, [G]would not marry for [D]riches,
[A]Marry some old big [G]fat girl, could not wear my [D]britches.
