B. "Go Bring Me Back the One I Love" sung by Mrs R. A. Dunham, Fairhope, Baldwin County, 1953.
Oh Captain, Captain tell me true,
Does my true lover sail with you?"
"No, he does not sail with me,
He's with the mermaids in the sea."
Bring back the one I love,
Oh, bring, oh bring him back to me.
They say he loves another now,
Oh, he's not keeping his vows.
