Off to Sea Once More

When first I landed in Liverpool, I went upon the spree
While money lasts, I spent it fast, got drunk as drunk could be
And when me money was all gone, on liquor and the whores
I made up me mind that I was inclined, to go to sea no more

No more, no more
To go to sea no more
I made up me mind that I was inclined
To go to sea no more

As I was walking down the street, I met sweet Angeline
She said: "Come home with me, my lad
And we'll have a cracking time"
But when I awoke, it was no joke, I found I was all alone
My silver watch and my money too
And my whole bloody gear was gone

Was gone, was gone
My whole bloody gear was gone
It was when I awoke, it was no joke
For my whole bloody gear was gone

As I was walking down the street, I met Big Rapper Brown
I asked him if he would take me in
And he looked at me with a frown
He said: "Last time you was paid off with me
You chalked up no score, but I’ll take your advance
And I'll give youse a chance
To go to sea once more"

Once more, once more
To go to sea once more
I'll take your advance
And I’ll give youse a chance
To go to sea once more

Sometimes we're catching whales, me lads
But mostly we get none
With a twenty-foot oar in every paw from five o'clock in the mor'n
And when daylight's gone and the night's coming on
We rest upon our oars and oh, boys, you wish that you was dead
Or snug with the girls ashore

Ashore, ashore
Or snug with the girls ashore
Oh, boys, you wish that you was dead
Or snug with the girls ashore

Come all you seafaring lads, that listen to me song
When you go a-big boating, boys
Make sure you do not go wrong
You take my tip when you come off a trip
Don't go with any whores
But get married instead, and have all night in bed
And go to sea no more

No more, no more
To go to sea no more
Get married instead and have all night in bed
And go to sea no more

No more, no more
To go to sea no more
Get married instead and have all night in bed
And go to sea no more
