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

So 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, moretimes 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, moretimes 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
