I'm going down to Thimble Island
|
To find my true love there.
|
I'm sure that I can find one
|
Long of limb with time to spare.
|
On Thimble Island.
|
I'm on my own down the river
|
I'll take my ivory needlecase.
|
I'll weave a blanket for when I shiver.
|
I'll stitch a bonnet to shield my face.
|
On Thimble Island.
|
|
You go there alone.
|
To find someone for to call them your own.
|
|
I've not heard of girls returning.
|
It is a murky, mystery place.
|
I may not have had much booklearnin'
|
But I've got charms to win the race.
|
On Thimble Island.
|
|
You go there alone.
|
To find someone for to call them your own.
|
|
All the girls are rowing there.
|
Gently down the stream.
|
In a dream I saw you there.
|
On Thimble Island.
|
|
I'm going down to Thimble Island
|
To find my true love there.
|
I'm sure that I can find one
|
Long of limb with time to spare.
|
On Thimble Island.
