'T was such a little-little boat That toddled down the bay! 'T was such a gallant- gallant sea

'T was such a little-little boat
That toddled down the bay!
'T was such a gallant- gallant sea
That beckoned it away!
'T was such a greedy, greedy wave
That licked it from the Coast;
Nor ever guessed the stately sails
My little craft was lost!
