Oh I'm sailin' away, my own true love
I'm sailin' away in the morning
Is there something I can send you from across the sea?
From the place that I'll be landing?

No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
There's nothin' I'm wishin' to be ownin'
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
From across that lonesome ocean

Oh but I just thought you might want something fine
Made of silver or of golden
Either from the mountains of Madrid
Or from a coast of Barcelona

But if I had the stars of the darkest night
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'

That I might be gone a long old time
And it's only that I'm askin'

To make your time more easy passin'

Oh how can, how can you ask me again?
It only brings me sorrow
This same thing I would want today
I would want again tomorrow

Oh I got a letter on a lonesome day
It was from her ship a sailin'
Saying "I don't know when I'll be comin' back again"
It depends on how I'm a feelin'

If you my love must think that a way
I'm sure your mind is roamin'
I'm sure your thought are not with me
But with the country to where you're goin'

So take heed, take heed of the western winds
Take heed of the stormy weather
And yes, there's something you can send back to me
Spanish boots of Spanish leather
