Lyrics : 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 wе'll draw alongside
Hoist her upwards boys, swing her inboard
For thе 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 boys, 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 boys, swing her inboard
For the journey now is done
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 wе'll draw alongside
Hoist her upwards boys, swing her inboard
For thе 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 boys, 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 boys, swing her inboard
For the journey now is done
