Lyrics:
Jenny, my own true loved one,
I'm going far from thee,
Out on the bounding billows,
Out on the dark blue sea.
How I will miss you, my darling,
There when the storm is raging high,
Jenny, my own true loved one,
Wait till the clouds roll by.
chorus:
Wait till the clouds roll by, Jenny,
Wait till the clouds rolls by;
Jenny, my own true loved one,
Wait till the clouds roll by.
Jenny, when far from thee, love,
I'm on the ocean deep,
Will you then dream of me, love,
Will you your promise keep?
Soon will I come to you, my darling,
Take courage, dear, and never sigh,
Gladness will follow sorrow,
Wait till the clouds roll by.
Jenny, I'll keep your image
Within my heart so true;
Each thought of mine forever
Still, love, shall be of you.
Dry, then, your tear-drop, my darling,
Soon will the night of sorrow fly;
Jenny, now don't be lonely,
Wait till the clouds roll by.
