are you kidding me? not one post? WOW. this song most definetely is great. If you don't get the meaning of this song, you are dumb. You must be very dumb because it's basically a story being told about a merchant who leaves his daughter behind and she sneaks aboard a ship as a dude, so she can be in love with her man.

@Peacethroughtheland I think you have a valid point regarding comments, so I tried to rectify and represent. Jack-a-roe is a classic, ballad or not! It\'s a timeless story. What\'s not to be loved. See my interpretation. <3

Presumptive much? And yes, you've provided the most philistine interpretation of the song.
