歌曲歌詞
I had a silver penny
And an apricot tree
And I said to the sailor
On the white quay
Sailor O sailor
Will you bring me
If I give you my penny
And my apricot tree
A fez from Algeria
An Arab drum to beat
A little gilt sword
And a
Parakeet
And he smiled and
He kissed me
As strong as death
And I saw his red tongue
And I felt his sweet breath
You may keep your penny
And your apricot tree
And I'll bring your presents
Back from sea
Back from sea
The ship dipped down
On the rim of the sky
And I waited while three
Long summers went by
Three Long summers went by
Then one steel morning
On the white quay
I saw a grey ship
Come in from sea
Slowly she came
Across the bay
For her flashing rigging
Was shot away
All round her wake
The seabirds
Cried
And flew in and out
Of the hole in her side
Slowly she came
In the path of the sun
And I heard the sound
Of a distant gun
Of a distant gun
And a stranger came
Running Up to me
From the deck of the ship
And he said said he
Are you the boy
Who would wait on the quay
With the silver penny
And the apricot tree
I've a plum-coloured fez
And a drum for thee
And a sword
And a parakeet
From over the sea
Where is the sailor
With bold red hair
And what is that volley On the bright air
And where are the other Girls and boys
Why have you brought me Children's toys
Brought me Children's toys
