alan doyle - leave her johnny lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i thought i heard the old man say
“leave her, johnny, leave her”
it’s a long, hard pull to the next payday
and it’s time for us to leave her

[verse 2]
the skipper was bad and the mate was worse
leave her, johnny, leave her
he would knock you down with a spike and a curse
and it’s time for us to leave her

[verse 3]
oh, the winds were foul and the work was hard
leave her, johnny, leave her
from the liverpool docks to the london yard
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

[instrumental]
[verse 4]
oh, there was rotten meat and moldy bread
leave her, johnny, leave her
but you’d eat it or you’d starve to death
and it’s time for us to leave her

[verse 5]
and i pray that i may never receive
leave her, johnny, leave her
oh, a hungry ship the likes of she
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

[instrumental bridge]

[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 6]
now’s the time to say goodbye
oh, leave her, johnny, leave her
oh, them grunts, they are all long bone dry
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

[outro]
to 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
