It's all for the life on a gallant ship
With a fair and fave'rin breeze
With a goodly crew and a Captain too
To carry me over the seas
To carry me over the seas, me boys
To me true love far away
For I'm taking a trip on a government ship
Ten thousand miles away
And sing blow, you bully boys, blow
A-roaming I will go
I'll stay no more on England's shore or hear the music play
I'm off on the morning train
And won't be back again
For I'm making a trip on a government ship
Ten thousand miles away
Well me true love she was beautiful
Me true love the was young
Her eyes were like the diamonds bright
And silver was her tongue
And silver was her tongue me boys
As the big ship sailed away
And she said will you remember me ten thousand miles away
And sing blow, you bully boys, blow
A-roaming I will go
I'll stay no more on England's shore or hear the music play
I'm off on the morning train
And won't be back again
For I'm taking a trip on a government ship
Ten thousand miles away
Oh now dark and dismal was the day
When last I saw me Meg
She'd a government band around each hand
And another one around her leg
And another one around her leg, me boys
As the big ship left the bay
And I said that I'd be true to her ten thousand miles away
And sing blow, you bully boys, blow
A-roaming I will go
I'll stay no more on England's shore or hear the music play
I'm off on the morning train
And won't be back again
For I'm taking a trip on a government ship
Ten thousand miles away
Oh I wish I was a boson
Or even a bombardier
I'd build a boat, away I'd float
And straight for me true love steer
And straight for me true love steer, me boys
Where the dancing dolphins play
And the whales and sharks are having their larks
Ten thousand miles away
And sing blow, you bully boys, blow
A-roaming I will go
I'll stay no more on England's shore or hear the music play
I'm off on the morning train
And won't be back again
For I'm taking a trip on a government ship
Ten thousand miles away
Oh the sun may shine through the London fog
Or the river run right clear
Or the ocean brine might turn to wine
Or I'll forget my beer
Or I'll forget me beer, me boys
Or the landlord's quarter-pay
B'fore I forget me own true Meg
Ten thousand miles away
And sing blow, you bully boys, blow
A-roaming I will go
I'll stay no more on England's shore or hear the music play
I'm off on the morning train
And won't be back again
For I'm making a trip on a government ship
Ten thousand miles away
And sing blow, you bully boys, blow
A-roaming I will go
I'll stay no more on England's shore or hear the music play
I'm off on the morning train
And won't be back again
For I'm taking a trip on a government ship
Ten thousand miles away
