Come get your duds in order
'Cause we're bound to cross the water
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
Come get your duds in order
'Cause we're bound to leave tomorrow
Heave away, me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Sometimes we're bound for Liverpool
Sometimes we're bound for Spain
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
But now we're bound for old St. John's
Where all the girls are dancing
Heave away, me jolly boys, we're all bound away
I wrote me love a letter, I was on the Jenny Lind
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
I wrote me love a letter, and I signed it with a ring
Heave away, me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Sometimes we're bound for Liverpool
Sometimes we're bound for Spain
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
But now we're bound for old St. John's
Where all the girls are dancing
Heave away, me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Now it's farewell Nancy darling
'Cause it's now I'm going to leave you
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
You promised that you'd marry me
But how you did deceive me
Heave away me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Sometimes we're bound for Liverpool
More times we're bound for Spain
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
But now we're bound for old St. John's
Where all the girls are dancing
Heave away me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Sometimes we're bound for Liverpool
Sometimes we're bound for Spain
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
But now we're bound for old St. John's
Where all the girls are dancing
Heave away me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Sometimes we're bound for Liverpool
More times we're bound for Spain
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
But now we're bound for old St. John's
Where all the girls are dancing
Heave away me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Heave away me jolly boys, we're all bound away
Heave away me jolly boys, we're all bound away
