Lyrics

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

I say Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

Yes, it's so long since I've been home

Seems like there's no place to roam

Well, I've sailed around the Horn

I've been from San Jose up to Baffin Bay

And I've rode out many a storm, yes-ah

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea, oh

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

Well, I've heard the bawdy tunes

I've been in honky-tonk saloons

I took my liquor by the vat

Ah, well, I stayed on call for a rousing ball

Home was where I hung my hat

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea, yes-ah

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

Now, I've courted many a girl

I've been in ports all around the world

But my rambling days are done

I've been from Curaçao up to Tokyo

And I've found there's only one

And she's Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea, yes-ah, Lordy

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea, yes-ah

It's so long since I've been home

Seems like there's no place to roam

Well, I've sailed around the Horn

I've been from San Jose up to Baffin Bay

And I've rode out many a storm, yes-ah

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

All together, now

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

Once again, now

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

A little softer

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

A little softer

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea

Angelina, Angelina

Please bring down your concertina

And play a welcome for me

'Cause I'll be coming home from sea
