Verse 1
O weep not, O weep not, dear mother,
O weep not, O weep not, for me,
For I have a sweet story to tell you,
Must be told by the moonlight alone.
Chorus
Meet me, O meet me by moonlight,
Meet me by moonlight alone,
For I have a sweet story to tell you,
Must be told by the moonlight alone.
Verse 2
O where and O where is my Willie?
O where, and O where can he be?
He's gone to the battle of freedom,
And when shall I see him again?
Chorus
Verse 3
There's a big ship out on the ocean,
It's loaded with silver and gold,
It belongs to a wealthy man's daughter,
And I'm sure my sweet Willie's on board.
Chorus
Verse 4
I wish I had wings like an angel,
I wish I had wings like a dove,
I would fly to the arms of my Willie,
To the arms of my bold sailor boy.
Chorus
