bounding main - when he is away lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i am a sailor’s wife
in hartlepool i dwell
now my husband thinks i love him
and so might he well
but i just can’t stand his face
when he at home does stay
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away

[chorus]
oh when he is away, me lass
when he is away
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
there’s no comfort at home for me
while he does stay
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away

[verse 2]
i’ll wave him off from thе town wall
with a feigned tear in mе eye
then we’ll roll down to the pub house
and drink the whole place dry
with all me girls around me
we’ll toast his sailing days
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
[chorus]
oh when he is away, me lass
when he is away
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
there’s no comfort at home for me
while he does stay
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away

[verse 3]
i’ll find meself a fancy man
and with him i will ride
we’ll roll arm in arm each night
until the morning tide
for me instrument it is me own
and with it i will play
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away

[chorus]
oh when he is away, me lass
when he is away
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
there’s no comfort at home for me
while he does stay
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
[verse 4]
for sly jobs i do fancy best
like many a sailor’s wife
’cause if we can’t enjoy ourselves
then what good are our lives?
so here’s to the girls of hartlepool
who never rue the day
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away

[chorus]
oh when he is away, me lass
when he is away
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
there’s no comfort at home for me
while he does stay
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away

oh when he is away, me lass
when he is away
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
there’s no comfort at home for me
while he does stay
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
oh when he is away, me lass
when he is away
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
there’s no comfort at home for me
while he does stay
for the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away
oh the only pleasure that i have is
when he is away, hey!
