Haul Away Joe
Sheet Music (and more information about this song)
When I was a little lad and so my mother told me,
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
That if I did not kiss the girls, my lips would grow all moldy.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
Chorus:
Way, haul away, we'll haul for better weather.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
[Way haul away, we'll haul away together.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!]
King Louis was the king of France before the revolution.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
But then he got his head cut off, which spoiled his constitution.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
Chorus
I used to have a Yankee girl, but she was fat and lazy.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
But now I've got an Irish girl, and she damn near drove me crazy.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
Chorus
The cook is in the galley boys, making duff so handy.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
The captain's in his cabin lads, drinking wine and brandy.
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe!
