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 leave
I'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 leave
Go 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
