"A Sailor’s Life" (Roud 273; Laws K12)〔(【引用サイトリンク】Roud Index entries )〕 is an English language folk song which describes the attempt of a young woman to find her lover, a sailor. Eventually she hears that he has drowned and mourns him. ==History== The song was printed in eighteenth-century broadsides and collected by W. Percy Merrick in 1899 from Henry Hills of Lodsworth, Sussex.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Informatik.uni-hamburg.de )〕 It was published in the ''Penguin Book of English Folk Songs'' and recorded in 1960 by A. L. Lloyd for the album ''A Selection from the Penguin Book of English Folk Songs''.〔 It was subsequently recorded by Judy Collins on her album ''A Maid of Constant Sorrow'' in 1961 and Martin Carthy for his ''Second Album'' in 1966 with his then playing partner violinist Dave Swarbrick.〔 It is probably from one of these sources that the song was learnt by Sandy Denny who sang it in her solo career and then brought it to the band Fairport Convention, where with Dave Swarbrick guesting on violin and Richard Thompson on guitar, it was released on the band's 1969 ''Unhalfbricking'' album. The eleven minute version, regarded as a pivotal step in the development of British folk-rock, was recorded in one take. It was a recording which marked the beginning of English electric folk, leading to the seminal album ''Liege & Lief'' later that year.〔Humphries, P.
