Now we are ready to head for the horn
Way, ay, roll an' go!
Our boots an' our clothes boys are all in the pawn
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!

Soon we'll be warping her out through the locks
Way, ay, roll an' go!
Where the pretty young gals all come down in their flocks
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!

Heave a pawl, oh, heave away
Way, ay, roll an' go!
The anchor's on board an' the cable's all stored
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!

Heave away, bullies, ye parish-rigged bums
Way, ay, roll an' go!
Keep yer hands from yer pockets and don't suck yer thumbs
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!

We're outward bound for Vallipo Bay
Way, ay, roll an' go!
Keep crackin', m' lads, 'tis a hell o' a way!
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!

Heave a pawl, oh, heave away
Way, ay, roll an' go!
The anchor's on board an' the cable's all stored
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!
To be rollickin' randy dandy o!
