minstrel: Love going to sea

I just heard a song called "In London So Fair", about a sailor who takes 
leave of his love to go to sea, and she follows him (disguised as a lad), 
eventually reveals herself to him, and they wed and live together at sea.
Anyone have lyrics to this?
Or know of other songs where lady successfully follows lad to sea (or to 
war)?  There are certainly plenty of songs where the lady is left behind, 
with various results.  It was enjoyable to hear this one.
