lirik lagu the longest johns - banks of newfoundland
[verse 1]
me bully boys of liverpool i’ll have you to beware
when you sail in them packet ships no dungaree jumpers wear;
but have a good monkey jacket all ready to your hand
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
{chorus}
we’ll scr-pe her and we’ll scrub her, with holystone and sand
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
[verse 2]
well we had jack lynch from ballynahinch, mike murphy and some more
and i tell you well, they suffered like h-ll on the way to baltimore; (to baltimore!)
they p-wned their gear in liverpool, and sailed as they did stand
but there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
[verse3]
well the mate he stood on the fo’c’sle head and loudly he did roar
come rattle her in, me lucky lads, you’re bound for america’s sh0r-; (america’s sh0r-!)
come wipe the blood off that dead man’s face, and haul or you’ll be d-mned
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
{chorus}
we’ll scr-pe her and we’ll scrub her, with holystone and sand
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
[verse 4]
and now it’s reef and reif, me boys, with the canvas frozen hard
at each mountain p-ss every mother’s son on a ninety-foot tops’l yard; (tops’l yard!)
never mind about boots and oilskins, but haul or you’ll be d-mned;(haul or you’ll be d-mned!)
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
{chorus}
we’ll scr-pe her and we’ll scrub her, with holystone and sand
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
[verse 5]
and now we’re off the hook, me boys, and the land is white with snow
and soon we’ll see the paytable and we’ll spend the whole night below; (night below!)
and on the docks, come down in flocks, those pretty girls will say
well it’s snugger with me than on the sea, on the banks of newfoundland
{chorus}
we’ll scr-pe her and we’ll scrub her, with holystone and sand
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
we’ll scr-pe her and we’ll scrub her, with holystone and sand
for there blow some cold nor’westers on the banks of newfoundland
