At night, I go on board and say Good night to all my friends on shore; I shut my eyes and sail away And see and hear no more. And sometimes things to bed I take, As prudent sailors have to do; Perhaps a slice of wedding cake, Perhaps a toy or two. AT NIGHT I GO ON BOARD AND SAY GOOD NIGHT TO ALL MY FRIENDS ON SHORE I SHUT MY EYES AND SAIL AWAY AND SEE AND HEAR NO MORE AND SOMETIMES THINGS TO BED I TAKE AS PRUDENT SAILORS HAVE TO DO PERHAPS A SLICE OF WEDDING CAKE PERHAPS A TOY OR TWO
issed and put to bed. And when at eve I rise from tea, Day dawns beyond the Atlantic Sea; And all the children in the West Are getting up and being dressed. THE LAMPLIGHTER My tea is nearly ready and the sun has left the sky. It's time to take the window to see Leerie going by; For every night at teatime and before you take your seat, With lantern and with ladder he comes posting up the street. Now Tom would be a driver and Maria go to sea, And my papa's a banker and as rich as he can be; But I, when I am stronger and can choose what I'm to do, O Leerie, I'll go round at night and light the lamps with you! For we are very lucky, with a lamp before the door, And Leerie stops to light it as he lights so many more; And oh! before you hurry by with ladder and with light; O Leerie, see a little child and nod to him tonight!
