Blow the Man Down
Lyrics from Iron Men & Wooden
Ships, by Frank Shay |
|
|
Oh, blow the man down, bullies, blow the man
down,
Way ay - blow the man down,
O Blow the man down in Liverpool town.
Give me some time to blow the man down.
As I was walking down Paradise Street,
Way ay - blow the man down,
A brass-bound policeman I happened to meet.
Give me some time to blow the man down.
Says he, "You're a Black-Baller by the cut
of your hair."
"I know you're a Black-Baller by the clothes
that you wear."
"O Piliceman, O Piliceman, you do me great
wrong."
"I'm a Flying Fish Sailor just home from
Hong Kong."
They gave me three months in Walton Gaol,
For booting and kicking and blowing him
down. |
