The Irish Rovers - The Bonnie Lady lyrics

All you sea barren men you're bound to sail again Far away from your mooring down in Portsmouth With your mast on high and wavin' goodbye To the la**ies you left on shore I've a fine strong crew and I tell them what to do I'm the captain of the ship The Boonie Lady She my joy and my pride and she's twenty meters wide And they call her the ship The Bonnie Lady So haul down the riggin' for were bound to sail away Across the raggin' ocean and were sailin' out today And if we do return you're bound to hear us say We'll be going to sea once more I've a fine strong crew and I tell them what to do I'm the captain of the ship The Boonie Lady She my joy and my pride and she's twenty meters wide And they call her the ship The Bonnie Lady We'll my shipmates and me we sail from sea to sea With the wind a whistlin' through the sails Though the crew gets no rest they think that I'm the best Cause I bail them one and all out of jail I've a fine strong crew and I tell them what to do I'm the captain of the ship The Boonie Lady She my joy and my pride and she's twenty meters wide And they call her the ship The Bonnie Lady We've a vast haul of rum a cargo we will run From along the far off shores of Haiti With the brisk salt air just blowin' through me hair At the wheel of the ship The Bonnie Lady I've a fine strong crew and I tell them what to do I'm the captain of the ship The Boonie Lady She my joy and my pride and she's twenty meters wide And they call her the ship The Bonnie Lady I've a fine strong crew and I tell them what to do I'm the captain of the ship The Boonie Lady She my joy and my pride and she's twenty meters wide And they call her the ship The Bonnie Lady I've a fine strong crew and I tell them what to do I'm the captain of the ship The Boonie Lady She my joy and my pride and she's twenty meters wide And they call her the ship The Bonnie Lady
