Lyrics

I'm going down to thimble island
To find my true love there
I'm sure that I can find one
Long of limb with time to spare
On thimble island
I'm on my own down the river
I'll take my ivory needlecase
I'll weave a blanket for when I shiver
I'll stitch a bonnet to shield my face
On thimble island

You go there alone
To find someone for to call them your own

I've not heard of girls returning
It is a murky, mystery place
I may not have had much booklearnin'
But I've got charms to win the race
On thimble island

You go there alone
To find someone for to call them your own

All the girls are rowing there
Gently down the stream
In a dream I saw you there
On thimble island

I'm going down to thimble island
To find my true love there
I'm sure that I can find one
Long of limb with time to spare
On thimble island
