Recorded by Hank Snow

Blue sea keep a-rollin'
On your weary way
My sweetie has left me
She done drifted away
She hopped a big ocean liner
Headed out to the sea
And left a world full of worries
On the beach with me

I know that she's sorry
'Cause she left me this way
So hurry and tell her
To sail back to me
And when you find the big steamship
Just look for this sign
There'll be an ocean of teardrops
Trailin' behind
