(She had a dark and a-rovin' eye-uh-eye and her
hair hung down in ring-a-lets)
(She was a nice
girl, a proper girl but one of the rovin'
kind)


As I cruised out one eve-e-ning
upon a night's career
I spied a lofty clipper
ship and to her I did steer
I heisted out my
sig-a-nals which she so quickly knew
And when
she saw my bunting fly she imme-diately hove
to-woo-woo

(She had a dark and a-rovin'
eye-uh-eye and her hair hung down in
ring-a-lets)
(She was a nice girl, a proper
girl but one of the rovin' kind)

I took
her for some fish and chips and treated her so
fine
And hardly did I realize she was the
rovin' kind
I kissed her lips, I missed her
lips and found to my surprise
She was nothin'
but a pirate ship rigged up in a
dis-guy-eye-ise

(She had a dark and
a-rovin' eye-eye-eye)
And her hair hung down
in ring-a-lets
(She was a nice girl, a proper
girl but one of the rovin' kind)

So, come
all ye good sailor men who sail the wintry
sea
And come, all ye apprentice lads, a
warnin' take from me
Beware of lofty clipper
ships, they'll be the ruin of you
For 'twas
there she made me walk the plank and pushed me
under, too-ooh-ooh

(She had a dark and
a-rovin' eye-uh-eye and her hair hung down in
ring-a-lets)
She was a nice girl, a proper
girl but one of the rovin' kind

(She was a
nice girl, a proper girl but)
One of the rovin'
kind (yo-ho!)
