One More Pull |
| It’s been a long time since you’ve seen her |
| Could have been three years or more |
| Will she be waiting when we dock, boys |
| Or like others will she be gone? |
| It’s one more pull boys, that’ll do boys |
| Soon we’ll draw alongside |
| Hoist her upwards boys, swing her inboard |
| For the journey’s nearly done |
| Well you’re looking mighty smart, boy |
| Dressed up in your number ones |
| You’ve scrounged a new blade from the purser |
| To take the bum-fluff from off your chin |
| It’s one more pull boys, that’ll do boys |
| Soon we’ll draw alongside |
| Hoist her upwards boys, swing her inboard |
| For the journey’s nearly done |
| When we’ve fixed those bow and stern lines |
| And you’ve scuttled down the gangway |
| If she’s waiting there, just kiss her |
| Turn around, give us a smile |
| It’s one more pull boys, that’ll do boys |
| Soon we’ll draw alongside |
| Hoist her upwards boys, swing her inboard |
| For the journey’s nearly done |
| Well, we too will go ashore soon |
| (Get drunk in the clubs and bars,) |
| Then stagger homeward, pockets empty |
| Like so many nights before |
| It’s one more pull boys, that’ll do boys |
| Soon we’ll draw alongside |
| Hoist her upwards boys, swing her inboard |
| For the journey’s nearly done |
| Well a man may take a wife, boy |
| And a man may take a mistress |
| But a sailor has his ship, boys |
| And his mistress it is the sea |
| It’s one more pull boys, that’ll do boys |
| Soon we’ll draw alongside |
| Hoist her upwards, swing her inboard |
| For the journey’s nearly done |
| It’s one more pull boys, that’ll do boys |
| Soon we’ll draw alongside |
| Hoist her upwards, swing her inboard |
| For the journey now is done |
