Here's The Tender Coming |
| Here’s the tender coming, pressing all the men |
| Oh dear hinny, what shall we do then? |
| Here’s the tender coming off at Shield’s Bar |
| Here’s the tender coming full of men of war |
| Hide thee canny hinny, hide thyself away |
| Hide thee till the frigate makes for Druridge Bay |
| If they take thee Geordie who’s to win our bread? |
| Me and little Jackie better off be dead |
| Here’s the tender coming, stealing off my dear |
| Oh dear hinny, they’ll ship you out of here |
| They will ship you foreign, that is what it means |
| Here’s the tender coming, full of red marines |
| Hey bonny lassie, let’s go to the Lawe |
| To see the tender lying off at Shield’s Bar |
| With her colours flying anchor at her bow |
| They took my bonny laddie best of all the crew |
| Here’s the tender coming, pressing all the men |
| Oh dear hinny, what shall we do then? |
| Here’s the tender coming off at Shield’s Bar |
| Here’s the tender coming full of men of war |
| Here’s the tender, coming pressing all the men |
| Oh dear hinny what shall we do then? |
