Verse:
My Sal is like a raven's wing
Hair is like her mother's
With hands that make quick work of a chore
And eyes like the top of a stove
Come supper time she'll walk the beach
Wrapped in my old duffle
With her eyes upon the mast head reach
down in Fogarty's cove

She cries when I'm away to sea
Nags me when I'm with her
She'd rather I'd a government job
Or maybe go on the dole
But I love her wave as I put about
And nose into the channel
My Sally keeps a supper and a bed for me
Down in Fogarty's cove.
