Row Me Bully Boys Row

Colm R McGuiness


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


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


While the first mate is plating the captain aboard

Row, me bully boys, row

He looks like a peacock with pistols and sword

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


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


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


Well, farewell my love, it is time for to roam

Row, me bully boys, row

The old blue peters are calling us home

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
