"Rosibella"

Oh come let's join Rosibella
Come let's join Rosibella
Come let's join
Come let's join
The South Sea Rosibella
(Heave away)
So come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join
Come let's join
In the South Sea Rosibella

Farewell ye ladies of London
Farewell ye ladies of Brixton
We hate to leave, but we're leaving
Aboard the Rosibella

(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join
Come let's join
The South Sea Rosibella

She's a deep water ship with a deep water crew
A deep water ship with a deep water crew
She can hug the shore, but damned if we do
Aboard the Rosibella

(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join
Come let's join
The South Sea Rosibella

One Monday morning in the month of May
Oh we all heard the old man say
Come me lads now for six months' pay
Aboard the Rosibella

(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join
Come let's join
In the South Sea Rosibella

Around Cape Horn where the dolphins play
Around Cape Horn where the dolphins play
Around Cape Horn 'tis a hell of a way
Aboard the Rosibella

(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join
Come let's join
In the South Sea Rosibella

Pretty Nancy is my true love
Oh Nancy yeah she's my true love
She could handle this whole bully crew, love
Aboard the Rosibella

(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join
Come let's join
The South Sea Rosibella

Sing it!

Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join Rosibella
(Heave away)
Come let's join
Come let's join
The South Sea Rosibella
(Heave away)
