Verse 1] Upon one summer's morning, I carefully did stray Down by the Walls of Wapping, where I met a sailor gay Conversing with a young lass who seemed to be in pain Saying, "William, when you go, I fear you'll ne'er return again" [Chorus] My heart is pierced by Cupid I disdain all glittering gold There is nothing can console me But my jolly sailor bold [Verse 2] His hair, it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal My happiness attend him wherever he may go From Tower Hill to Blackwall, I'll wander, weep and moan All for my jolly sailor, until he sails home [Chorus] My heart is pierced by Cupid I disdain all glittering gold There is nothing can console me But my jolly sailor bold [Post-Chorus] Ah, ah, oh Oh, ah, ooh [Verse 3] My name, it is Maria, a merchant's daughter fair And I have left my parents and three thousand pounds a year Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be Who love a jolly sailor that ploughs the raging sea While up aloft in storm, from me his absence mourn And firmly pray, arrive the day, he's never more to roam Chorus] My heart is pierced by Cupid I disdain all glittering gold There is nothing can console me But my jolly sailor bold (Ah) My heart is pierced by Cupid I disdain all glittering gold There is nothing can console me But my jolly sailor bold

For those who don't know, the flower the song refers to at the end is a real flower under the term Night-blooming Cereus, which refers to a variety of different flowers, but if I recall correctly the one that only blooms at midnight once a year is call "Queen of the Night".
