Haul Away Joe |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away the lowland |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away Joe! |
Way, haul away, the packet is a rolling |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away Joe! |
Way, haul away, we’ll hang and haul together |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away Joe! |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul for better weather |
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! |
King Louis got his head cut off |
And spoiled his constitution |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away Joe! |
When I was a little boy |
And so my mother told |
Way, haul away, Way, haul away |
That if I didn’t kiss the girls |
My lips would grow all moldy |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away Joe! |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away the lowland |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away Joe! |
Way, haul away, the packet is a rolling |
Way, haul away, we’ll haul away Joe! |
Haul away Joe! |
Haul away Joe! |
Packet — a ship traveling at regular intervals |
between two ports, originally for the |
conveyance of mail. |
Sung for short hauling jobs requiring a few bursts of great force, |
such as changing direction of sails or hauling taut the corners |
of sails. |
