Cruising 'round Yarmouth |
| While cruising ‘round yarmouth one day for a spree |
| I spied a fair damsel the wind blowing free |
| I’m a fast going clipper me kind sir says she |
| I’m ready for cargo me hold is quite free |
| Singing fal-der-all laddie right fal-der-all day |
| Fal-der-all laddie i fal-der-all day |
| Which country she came from she didn’t show much |
| She might have been english or german or dutch |
| A neat little packet all nicely endowed |
| She was round in the quarters and bluff in the bow |
| Singing fal-der-all laddie right fal-der-all day |
| Fal-der-all laddie i fal-der-all day |
| I threw out me hauser and took her in tow |
| And yardarm to yardarm a towing we’d go |
| She lowered her forsails, her staysails and all |
| With her lily white hand on me reef tackle fall |
| Singing fal-der-all laddie right fal-der-all day |
| Fal-der-all laddie i fal-der-all day |
| Says i pretty fair maid it’s time to give o’er |
| For ‘twixt wind and water you’ve run me ashore |
| Me shot locker’s empty and me powder’s all spent |
| I can’t fire a shot for it’s choked at the vent |
| Singing fal-der-all laddie right fal-der-all day |
| Fal-der-all laddie i fal-der-all day |
| Here’s luck to the girl with the red curly locks |
| Here’s luck to the girl who ran jack on the rocks |
| Here’s luck to the doctor who eased all his pain |
| He squared his main yards he’s a cruising again |
| Singing fal-der-all laddie right fal-der-all day |
| Fal-der-all laddie i fal-der-all day |
| Singing fal-der-all laddie right fal-der-all day |
| Fal-der-all laddie i fal-der-all day |
