Tommy Makem Haul Away Joe
When I was a little boy, so my mother told me, to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
That if I did not kiss the girls, my lips would all grow
moldy, to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
Way, haul away, the good ship now is rolling, to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
First I met a yankee girl and she was fat and lazy, to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
And then I met an Irish girl, she damn near drove me
crazy, to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
King Louis was the King of France before the revolution,
to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
And then he got his head cut off, it spoiled his
constitution, to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
St. Patrick was a gentleman, he came form decent people,
to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
He built a church in Dublin town and on it put a steeple,
to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
Way haul away, we're bound for better weather, to me
Way haul away, we'll haul away Joe
