Randy Dandy O!
Lyrics from Shanties from the
Seven Seas, by Stan Hugill |
|
|
Now we are ready to
head for the Horn,
Way, ay, roll an' go!
Our boots an' our clothes boys are all in
the pawn,
Time rollickin' randy dandy O!
Heave a pawl, oh, heave away,
Way, ay, roll an' go!
The anchor's on board an' the cable's all
stored,
Time rollickin' randy dandy O!
Soon we'll be warping her out through the
locks,
Way, ay, roll an' go!
Where the pretty young gals all come down in
their flocks,
Time rollickin' randy dandy O!
Heave a pawl, oh, heave away,
Way, ay, roll an' go!
The anchor's on board an' the cable's all
stored,
Time rollickin' randy dandy O!
Come breast the bars, bullies, an' heave her
away,
Soon we'll be rollin' her 'way down the Bay,
Sing goodbye to Sally an' goodbye to Sue,
For we are the boy-os who can kick 'er
through.
Oh, man the stout caps'n an' heave with a
will,
Soon we'll be drivin' her 'way down the
hill.
Heave away, bullies, ye parish-rigged bums,
Take yer hands from yer pockets and don't
suck yer thumbs.
Roust 'er up, bullies, the wind's drawin'
free,
Let's get the glad-rags on an' drive 'er to
sea.
We're outward bound for Vallipo Bay,
Get crackin', m' lads, 'tis a hell o' a way! |
