A Sailor Ballad

A Sailor Ballad
 
Oh, tie your knot with a tug and twist,
     And never a careless bend,
Look out for strands that you may have missed,
     And never leave a loose end.
 
In law or love will the ruling hold:
     If trouble away you’d fend,
Be careful ever, and often bold,
     But never leave a loose end.
 
The lag or slip of a rope will give
     A loop that you can’t defend.
You’ll hate yourself as long as you live -
     Oh, never leave a loose end!
 
Some other fellow as quick as thought
     Will do what you cannot mend -
Untie your luck or your true-love knot, -
     So never leave a loose end.
