Blow the Man Down
Lyrics from Songs of The Sailor
and Lumberman, by William Doerflinger |
|
|
Oh, blow the man down, Johnny, Blow him
right down,
To me way - ay, blow the man down,
Aw, blow the man down for a half a crown,
Gimme some time to blow the man down!
As I was a-walking on Paradise Street,
To me way - ay, blow the man down,
A sassy policeman I chanced for to meet,
Gimme some time to blow the man down!
Says he, "You're a Yank by the cut of your
hair,
And you've robbed some poor Dutchman of the
clothes that you wear."
"Oh no, Mister Policeman, I know you are
wrong!
I'm a deep-water sailor just home from Hong
Kong." |
