Off to Sea Once More
When first I landed in Liverpool
I went upon a spree
Me money alas I spent too fast
Got drunk as drunk could be
And when my money was all gone
It was then I wanted more
But a man must be blind to make up his mind
To go to sea once more
Once more,once more
Go to sea once more
But a man must be blind to make up his mind
To go to sea once more
I spent the night with Angeline
Too drunk to roll in bed
My watch was new and my money too
In the morning with them she fled
And as I walked the streets about
The whores they all would roar
Here comes Jack Rack, the young sailing' lad
He must go to sea once more
Once more,once more
Go to sea once more
Here comes Jack Rack, the young sailing' lad
He must go to sea once more
And As I walk the street about
I met with Rapper Brown
I asked him for to take me on
And he looked at me with a frown
He said "Last time you was paid off
With me you jobbed no score
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance
And I'll send you to sea once more
Once more,once more
Send you to sea once more
I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance
And I'll send you to sea once more
See he shipped me onboard of a whaling ship
Bound for the Artic seas
And the cold winds blow through the frost and snow
And Jamaican rum would freeze
But worst bear I'd no weather gear
For I spent all my money ashore
It was then that I wished that I was dead
I'd go to sea no more
No more,no more
Go to sea no more
It was then that I wished that I was dead
I'd go to sea no more
So Come all you bold seafarin' men
You listen to my song
When you come off the long trips
I have you not go wrong
Take my advice, drink no strong drink
Don't go sleeping with no whores
Get married instead,spin all night in bed
And go to sea no more
No more,no more
Go to sea no more
Get married instead,spin all night in bed
And go to sea no more
No more,no more
No more,no more
No more,more
No more,go to sea no more
Get married instead,spin all night in bed
When you get off,you go Jense
And how do I get up
Drink no strong drink for any mistress
Don't go sleeping with no whores
No more,no more
No more,I go to sea no more
No more,no
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
La la la
