Traditional American Folk - Rock About My Saro Jane lyrics

I've got a wife and five little chillun Believe I'll take a trip on the big MacMillan Oh Saro Jane! Oh, there's nothing to do but to sit down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane Oh, rock about my Saro Jane Oh, there's nothing to do but to sit down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane Boiler busted and the whistle done blowed The head captain done fell overboard Oh Saro Jane! Oh, there's nothing to do but to sit down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane Oh, rock about my Saro Jane Oh, there's nothing to do but to sit down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane Engine gave a crack and the whistle gave a squall

The engineer gone to the hole in the wall Oh Saro Jane! Oh, there's nothing to do but to sit down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane Oh, rock about my Saro Jane Oh, there's nothing to do but to sit down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane Yankees build boats for to shoot them rebels My musket's loaded and I'm gonna hold it level Oh Saro Jane! Oh, there's nothing to do but to set down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane Oh, rock about my Saro Jane Oh there's nothing to do but to set down and sing And rock about my Saro Jane
