I SAW THREE SHIPS COME SAILING BY.

1. I saw three ships come sailing by, Sailing by, sailing by; I saw three ships come sailing by On New Year’s Day in the morning. 2. And what do you think was in them then, etc. 3. Three pretty girls were in them then, etc. 4. And one could whistle, and one could sing, The other could play on the violin; Such joy there was at my wedding On New Year’s Day in the morning.
