You're as white as I turned once down by the mill,
When one told me you and ship and crew were lost:
Philip my playfellow, when we were boy and girl
(It was the Miller's Nancy told it to me),
Philip with the merry life in lip and curl,
Philip my drowned in the sea!
When one told me you and ship and crew were lost:
Philip my playfellow, when we were boy and girl

Philip with the merry life in lip and curl,
Philip my drowned in the sea!
