Row Me Bully Boys
[Verse 1]
I'll sing you a song, it's a song of the sea
Row, me bully boys, row
Oh, I'll sing you a song if you'll sing it with me
And it's row, me bully boys, row
[Chorus]
And it's row, me bully boys
We're in a hurry, boys
We got a long way to go
And we'll sing and we'll dance
And bid farewell to France
And it's row, me bully boys, row
[Verse 2]
While the first mate is plating the captain a board
Row, me bully boys, row
He looks like a peacock with pistols and sword
And it's row, me bully boys, row
[Chorus]
And it's row, me bully boys
We're in a hurry, boys
We got a long way to go
And we'll sing and we'll dance
And bid farewell to France
And it's row, me bully boys, row
[Verse 3]
The captain likes whiskey, the mate, he likes rum
Row, me bully boys, row
Us sailors like both but we can't get us none
And it's row, me bully boys, row
[Chorus]
And it's row, me bully boys
We're in a hurry, boys
We got a long way to go
And we'll sing and we'll dance
And bid farewell to France
And it's row, me bully boys, row
[Verse 4]
Well farewell my love, it is time for to roam
Row, me bully boys, row
The ol' blue peters are calling us home
And it's row, me bully boys, row
[Outro]
And it's row, me bully boys
We're in a hurry, boys
We got a long way to go
And we'll sing and we'll dance
And bid farewell to France
And it's row, me bully boys, row
And it's row, me bully boys
We're in a hurry, boys
We got a long way to go
And we'll sing and we'll dance
And bid farewell to France
And it's row, me bully boys, row
Row, me bully boys, row
