INTRO Verso I cannot get to my love, if I would dee, The water of Tyne runs between him and me, And here I must stand with a tear in my e'ee, Both sighing and sickly my sweetheart to see. Verso O where is the boatman? my bonny hinny! O where is the boatman? bring him to me, To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey, and I will remember the boatman and thee. Verso O bring me a boatman, I'll give any money, and you for your trouble rewarded shall be, To ferry me over the Tyne to my honey, Or scull him across that rough river to me. Verso I cannot get to my love, if I would dee, The water of Tyne runs between him and me, And here I must stand with a tear in my e'ee, Both sighing and sickly my sweetheart to see.
