lyrics

Now we are ready to head for the horn
Way-hey roll and go
Our boots and our clothes are all in pawn
To me rollickin' randy-dandy oh

Heave a pawl, heave away
Way-hey roll and go
The anchor's on board and the cable's all stored
To me rollickin' rand-dandy oh

Soon we'll be warping her out through the lock
Way-hey roll and go
Where the pretty young girls come down in their flocks
To me rollickin' rand-dandy oh

Heave a pawl, heave away
Way-hey roll and go
The anchor's on board and the cable's all stored
To me rollickin' rand-dandy oh

Roll and go! Come breast the bar bullies.
Roll and go! And heave her away.
Roll and go! Soon we'll be rolling.
Roll and go! Be rolling her way down the bay.
Roll and go! Sing goodbye to Sally.
Roll and go! And sing goodbye to Sue.
Roll and go! For we are the boys.
Roll and go! The boys who can kick her through.
Roll and go! Oh man the stout capstain.
Roll and go! And heave with a will.
Roll and go! Soon we'll be driving.
Roll and go! Be driving her way down the hill.
Roll and go! Heave away bullies.
Roll and go! You parish rigged bums.
Roll and go! Take your hands from your pockets.
Roll and go! And don't you suck your thumbs.

Roust her up bullies the wind's drawing free
Way-hey roll and go
Get your glad rags on and we'll drive her to sea
To me rollickin' rand-dandy oh

Heave a pawl, heave away
Way-hey roll and go
The anchor's on board and the cable's all stored
To me rollickin' rand-dandy oh

Heave a pawl, heave away
Way-hey roll and go
The anchor's on board and the cable's all stored
To me rollickin' rand-dandy oh.
