O I thought I heard the old man say, leave her, Johnny, leave her! Tomorrow ye will get your pay, an' it's time for us to leave her! Leave her, Johnny, leave her! Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her! For the voyage is long an' the winds don't blow, an' it's time for us to leave her! Oh the wind was foul an' the sea ran high, leave her, Johnny, leave her! She shipped it green an' none went by, an' it's time for us to leave her! Leave her, Johnny, leave her! Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her! For the voyage is long an' the winds don't blow, an' it's time for us to leave her! I hate to sail on this rotten tub, leave her, Johnny, leave her! No grog allowed and rotten grub, an' it's time for us to leave her! Leave her, Johnny, leave her! Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her! For the voyage is long an' the winds don't blow, an' it's time for us to leave her! We swear by rote for want o' more, leave her, Johnny, leave her! Oh now we're through so we'll gon on shore, an' it's time for us to leave her! Leave her, Johnny, leave her! Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her! For the voyage is long an' the winds don't blow, an' it's time for us to leave her!
