Whip Jamboree

And now, me lads, be of good cheer

For Lundy Island's drawing near

So thump your bed and stow your gear

Oh, sing 'til the work is done (Woo!)

Jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, you pig-tailed sailor, hangin' on behind

Whip jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, sing 'til the work is done

Now Hartland Point it is in sight

And on the port bow is Lundy's light

We'll be stoking up your fires tonight

Oh, sing 'til the work is done (Woo!)

Jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, you pig-tailed sailor, hangin' on behind

Whip jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, sing 'til the work is done

A pilot gig is up ahead

To the weather, me boys, a-heavin' on the lead

Tonight we'll sleep in a dry feather bed

Oh, sing 'til the work is done (Woo!)

Jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, you pig-tailed sailor, hangin' on behind

Whip jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, sing 'til the work is done

And when we reach that Wareham Quay

The pretty little maids will come down to see

With their long-tailed draws all over their knee

Oh, sing 'til the work is done (Woo!)

Jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, you pig-tailed sailor, hangin' on behind

Whip jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, sing 'til the work is done

And now I'm safe and on the shore

I don't give a damn how the winds do roar

I've dropped me anchor, go to sea no more

Oh, sing 'til the work is done (Woo!)

Jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, you pig-tailed sailor, hangin' on behind

Whip jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, sing 'til the work is done (Last time!)

Jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, you pig-tailed sailor, hangin' on behind

Whip jamboree, whip jamboree

Oh, sing 'til the work is done
