Almanac Singers Away Rio
I'll sing you a song of the fish of the sea,
Way, Rio!
I'll sing you a song of the fish of the sea,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande!
Then away, love, away,
Way, Rio!
So fare ye well, my pretty
young gal,
We are bound for the Rio Grande!
It's goodbye to Sally and goodbye to Sue,
Way, Rio!
And you
who are listening goodbye to you,
For we're bound for the
Rio Grande!
So man the good capstan and run it around,
Way, Rio!
We'll
heave up the anchor to this jolly sound,
For we're bound
for the Rio Grande!
Then away, love, away,
Way, Rio!
So fare ye well, my pretty
young gal,
We are bound for the Rio Grande!
Our ship went a-sailing out over the bar,
Way, Rio!
We
pointed her nose for the southeren star,
For we're bound
for the Rio Grande!
Then away, love, away,
Way, Rio!
So fare ye well, my pretty
young gal,
We are bound for the Rio Grande!
The anchor is weighed and the sails they are set,
Way,
Rio!
The maids that we're leaving we'll never forget,
For
we're bound for the Rio Grande!
Then away, love, away,
Way, Rio!
So fare ye well, my pretty
young gal,
We are bound for the Rio Grande!
