Lyrics

When I was a little lad, or so my mother told me
Way, haul away, we'll haul away Joe
That if I did not kiss the girls, my lips would all grow mouldy
Way, haul away, we'll haul away Joe

Way, haul away, the good ship now is rollin'
Way, haul away, we'll haul away Joe

I sailed the seas for many a year not knowing what I was missin...
So I set my sails for westward gales, and started in a-kissin...

Way haul away, we're bound for better weather
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe

Well first I had a Yankee girl but she was fat and lazy...
And then I had an Irish girl, who damn near drove me crazy...

Way haul away, we're bound for better weather
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe

King Louie was the king of France before the revolution...
And then he got his head cut off, it spoiled his constitution

Way haul away, we're bound for better weather
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe

Saint Patrick was a gentleman, he came from decent people...
He built a church in Dublintown and on it set a steeple...
From Ireland he drove the snakes, and drank up all the whisky...
It made him dance and sing and jig, he felt so fine and frisky...

Way haul away, we're bound for better weather
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
