Explanatory liner notes by record label ANTI-:

A 19th century Irish folk ballad, probably first recorded by Joe Heaney (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Heaney ) in the early 1960s. This is the classic story of a young woman in love with a sailor who follows him to sea, dressed as a man. The unusual twist is that it all ends so happily.
