SAILOR SHANTIES
Clear the track, let the Bullgine run ~ Lyrics
(WINDLASS AND CAPSTAN SHANTY)
1. Oh, the smartest clipper you can find.
Ah ho Way-oh, are you most done.
Is the Marget Evans of the Blue Cross Line.
So clear the track, let the Bullgine run.
Tibby Hey rig a jig in a jaunting car.
Ah ho Way-oh, are you most done.
With Lizer Lee all on my knee.
So clear the track, let the Bullgine run.
2. Oh the Marget Evans of the Blue Cross Line
She's never a day behind her time.
3. Oh the gels are walking on the pier
And I'll soon be home to you, my dear.
4. Oh when I come home across the sea,
It's Lizer you will marry me.
5. Öh shake her, wake her, before we're gone;
Oh fetch that gel with the blue dress on.
6. Oh I thought I heard the skipper say
"We'll keep the brig three points away."
7. Oh the smartest clipper you can find
Is the Marget Evans of the Blue Cross Line
