I've always loved the defiant yet sad chorus of this song, which seems to have come over here from England, dating back to the early 1800’s. A woman swears off men (and later goes on to commit suicide by drowning herself) after she is rejected. I chose not to sing those last verses.
I Never Will Marry
One day as I rambled down by the seashore
The wind it did whistle and the waters did roar
I spied a fair damsel, she made a pitiful cry
It sounded so lonesome in the waters nearby
I never will marry, I'll be no man's
wife
I expect to live single all
the days of my life
My love's gone and left me, he's
the one I adore
He's gone where I never shall see him no more
I never will marry, I'll be no man's
wife
I expect to live single all
the days of my life
