Lyrics
What will we do with the drunken sailor?
What will we do with the drunken sailor?
What will we do with the drunken sailor?
Early in the morning!

Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Early, in the morning!

Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
Early in the morning!

Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Early, in the morning!

Put him in a long boat till his sober,
Put him in a long boat till his sober,
Put him in a long boat till his sober,
Early in the morning!

Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Early, in the morning!

Stick him in the scuppers with a hosepipe on him,
Stick him in the scuppers with a hosepipe on him,
Stick him in the scuppers with a hosepipe on him,
Early in the morning!

Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Early, in the morning!

Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter,
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter,
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter,
Early in the morning!

Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Early, in the morning!

That's what we do with a drunken sailor,
That's what we do with a drunken sailor,
That's what we do with a drunken sailor,
Early in the morning!

Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Early, in the morning!

Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Way, hey and up she rises,
Early, in the morning!

[Verse]

G                            G7        C        Cm
Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
             G                          D    D7
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
             G        G7            C    Cm
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
               G        D7            G
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide
                      C               G       D
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
            G          C                   D     D7
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
        G       C              G       Em
I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
         G             D7              G
Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so

G                   G7                  C      Cm
But if you come and all the flowers are dying
         G         G7                 D7
And I am dead, and dead I well may be
                G        G7               C      Cm
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
              G      D7               G
And kneel and say an Ave there for me
           G         C               G        D   
And I will know tho' soft you tread above me
           G          C              D   D7
And all my grave will richer sweeter be
                G        C                G       Em
And you'll bend down and tell me that you love me
           G               D7              G
And I will rest in peace until you come to me

Lyrics
I'll sing you a song, a good song of the sea
Way - hey, blow the man down.
I trust that you'll join in the chorus with me;
Give me some time to blow the man down.

Chorus
Blow the man down, bully, blow the man down;
Way - hey, blow the man down.
Blow the man down, boys, from Liverpool town;
Give me some time to blow the man down.

As I was a-walking down Paradise street -
Way - hey, blow the man down.
A handsome young damsel I happened to meet -
Give me some time to blow the man down.

At the pub down on Lime street I then went astray -
Way - hey, blow the man down.
I drank enough stout for to fill Galway Bay -
Give me some time to blow the man down.

Chorus
Blow the man down, bully, blow the man down;
Way - hey, blow the man down.
Blow the man down, boys, from Liverpool town;
Give me some time to blow the man down.

The next I remember I woke in the dawn -
Way - hey, blow the man down.
On a tall Yankee clipper that was bound round Cape Horn.
Give me some time to blow the man down.

Come all ye young fellows who follow the sea -
Way - hey, blow the man down.
Beware of the drink whenever it's free -
Give me some time to blow the man down.

Chorus
Blow the man down, bully, blow the man down;
Way - hey, blow the man down.
Blow the man down, boys, from Liverpool town;
Give me some time to blow the man down.

 G                          G             G                     D
In a neat little town they call Belfast, apprenticed to trade I was bound
G Em C D G
And many's the hour of sweet happiness, I spent in that neat little town
G G G D
Till sad misfortune came over me, which caused me to stray from the land
G Em C D G
Far away from me friends and relations, betrayed by the black velvet band

G G G D Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land G Em C D G And her hair it hung over her shoulder, tied up with a black velvet band

G G G D
I took a stroll with this pretty fair maid, and a gentleman passing us by
G Em C D G
I knew she meant the undoing of me, by the look in her roguish black eye
G G G D
A gold watch she took from his pocket, and she placed it right into me hand
G Em C D G
And the very first thing that I thought was, bad luck to the black velvet band

G G G D Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land G Em C D G And her hair it hung over her shoulder, tied up with a black velvet band

G G G D
Now before a judge and a jury, next morning I had to appear
G Em C D G
Oh the judge he said to me "Young man, your case is proven clear
G G G D
We'll give you seven years' penal servitude, to be spent far away from the land.
G Em C D G
Far away from your friends and relations, betrayed by the black velvet band

G G G D Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land G Em C D G And her hair it hung over her shoulder, tied up with a black velvet band

G G G D
So come all ye jolly young fellows, and a warning take by me
G Em C D G
For when you are out on the town me lads, beware of them pretty colleens
G G G D
For they'll feed you with strong ale "More Yeah", until you are unable to stand
G Em C D G
And the very next thing that you know me lads, is you've landed in Van Diemen's Land

G G G D Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land G Em C D G And her hair it hung over her shoulder, tied up with a black velvet band

G G G D Her eyes they shone like diamonds, I thought her the queen of the land G Em C D G And her hair it hung over her shoulder, tied up with a black velvet band
