"Across The Western Sea" lyrics

"Across The Western Sea"

As I was walking down the street
Across the western ocean
A furry young lassie I did meet
Across the western sea
She was a beauty bound and stern
Across the western ocean
And for her treasures I did yearn
Across the western sea

Oh, when we reach the other shore
Across the western ocean
We'll drink like hell we'll rant and roar
Across the western sea

She asked me if I'd stand a treat
Across the western ocean
I will says I for one so sweet
Across the western sea
Up to her quarters we did go
Across the western ocean
I kissed her from her head to toe
Across the western sea

Oh, when we reach the other shore
Across the western ocean
We'll drink like hell we'll rant and roar
Across the western sea

We took no rest we forged ahead
Across the western ocean
We rocked and rolled around the bed
Across the western sea
Then heavy footsteps on the stairs
Across the western ocean
Oh dear, she says, my husbands there
Across the western sea

Oh, when we reach the other shore
Across the western ocean
We'll drink like hell we'll rant and roar
Across the western see

I left the bed put on me clothes
Across the western ocean
His fist it found me bare old nose
Across the western sea
He choke me like a ragged doll
Across the western ocean
I was kicked about like an old football
Across the western sea

Oh, when we reach the other shore
Across the western ocean
We'll drink like hell we'll rant and roar
Across the western sea

He'd murder me I quite well
Across the western ocean
So down the stairs I fell like hell
Across the western sea
Come sailor boys where ever ya be
Across the western ocean
I hope ya's all take mind of me
Across the western sea

Oh, when we reach the other shore
Across the western ocean
We'll drink like hell we'll rant and roar
Across the western sea

Oh, when we reach the other shore
Across the western ocean
We'll drink like hell we'll rant and roar
Across the western sea
