Bold Riley

Oh the rain it rains all day long
Bold Riley-O, Bold Riley
And the northern wind, it blows so strong
Bold Riley-O has gone away
 
 Goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear-O
 Bold Riley-O, Bold Riley
 Goodbye my darlin’, goodbye my dear-O
 Bold Riley-O has gone away
 
The anchor’s weighed and the rags we’ve all set,
Bold Riley O, Bold Riley
Them Liverpool judies we’ll never forget,
Bold Riley-O has gone away

Well come on Mary, don’t look glum
Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley
Come White-stocking Day you’ll be drinkin’ rum
Bold Riley-O has gone away

We’re outward bound for the Bengal Bay
Bold Riley-O, Bold Riley
Get bending, me lads, its a hell-of-a-way
Bold Riley-O has gone away
