Lowlands, lowlands away, my John
My old mother wrote to me
About a dollar and a half a day
She told me to come home from sea
Lowlands, lowlands away, my John
Five dollars a day is white man′s pay
My dollar and a half a day
Dollar a day is black man's pay
Lowlands, lowlands away, my John
Had a dream the other night
My dollar and a half a day
Dreamed I was coming home from sea
Lowlands, lowlands away, my John
My old mother wrote to me
About a dollar and a half a day
She told me to come home from sea
