Bold Riley

Oh the rain it rains all day long

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley

And the northern wind, it blows so strong

Bold Riley-o has gone away



Goodbye my sweetheart

Goodbye my dear-o

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley

Goodbye my darlin'

Goodbye my dear-o

Bold Riley-o has gone away



Well come on, Mary, don't look glum

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley



Come White-stocking Day you'll be drinkin' rum

Bold Riley-o has gone away



CHORUS



We're outward bound for the Bengal Bay

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley

Get bending, me lads

It's a hell-of-a-way

Bold Riley-o has gone away
