Come get your duds in order 'cuz we're bound to
Cross the water
Heave away, me jollies, heave a- way
Come get your duds in order 'cuz we're bound to
Leave tomorrow
Heave a way me jolly boys, we're all bound a-
Way

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

Now it's farewell Nancy darling, 'cuz it's now I'm
Going to leave you
Heave away, me jollies, heave away
You promised that me 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, 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
