All for Me Grog
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
I'm sick in the head 'cause I haven't been to bed
Since first I came ashore with me plunder
I've seen centipedes and snakes, and me head is full of aches
So I think I'll take a path for way out yonder
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where are me boots, me noggin', noggin' boots?
They're all sold for beer and tobacco
For the soles, they got more thin and the uppers were lettin' in
And me feet were lookin' out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, oh, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Now where is me shirt, my noggin', noggin' shirt?
It's all sold for beer and tobacco
For the sleeves, they got wore out, and the collar turned inside out
And the tail is looking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander, woo!
And where is me bed, me noggin', noggin' bed?
It's all sold for beer and tobacco
Well the sheets, they got all worn and the mattress got all torn
And the springs, they're lookin' out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Then where is me wife, me noggin', noggin' wife?
She's all sold for beer and tobacco
Well her front, it got wore out and her arse was kicked about
And I hope she's looking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
I spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
I'm sick in the head 'cause I haven't been to bed
Since first I came ashore with me plunder
I've seen centipedes and snakes, and me head is full of aches
So I think I'll take a path for way out yonder
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where are me boots, me noggin', noggin' boots?
They're all sold for beer and tobacco
For the soles, they got more thin and the uppers were lettin' in
And me feet were lookin' out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, oh, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Now where is me shirt, my noggin', noggin' shirt?
It's all sold for beer and tobacco

And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I spent all me tin with the ladies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
