leave her johnny - the longest johns lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
oh, the times were hard and the wages low
(leave her, johnny, leave her)
i guess it’s time for us to go
(and it’s time for us to leave her)

[verse 2]
beware these packet ships, i say
(leave her, johnny, leave her)
they’ll steal your stores and your clothes away
(and it’s time for us to leave her)

[chorus]
leave her, johnny, leave her
oh, leave her, johnny, leave her
for the voyage is done and the winds don’t blow
and it’s time for us to leave her

[verse 3]
there’s liverpool pat in his tarpaulin hat
(leave her, johnny, leave her)
and yankee john the pocket rat
(and it’s time for us to leave her)

[verse 4]
she would not wear and she would not stay
(leave her, johnny, leave her)
she shipped great seas both night and day
(and it’s time for us to leave her)
[chorus]
leave her, johnny, leave her
oh, leave her, johnny, leave her
for the voyage is done and the winds don’t blow
and it’s time for us to leave her

[verse 5]
it’s rotten beef and weevily bread
(leave her, johnny, leave her)
it was pump or drown the old man said
(and it’s time for us to leave her)

[verse 6]
the sails all furled, our work is done
(leave her, johnny, leave her)
and now ashore we’ll take our run
(and it’s time for us to leave her)

[chorus]
leave her, johnny, leave her
oh, leave her, johnny, leave her
for the voyage is done and the winds don’t blow
and it’s time for us to leave her
leave her, johnny, leave her
oh, leave her, johnny, leave her
for the voyage is done and the winds don’t blow
and it’s time for us to leave her
