(Chorus) Heave away for Plymouth.
II
They lashed her gear and hove her keel.
(Chorus) Heave away, my bullies.
They lashed her gear and hove her keel,
And scraped and painted her as taut as steel.
(Chorus) Heave away for Plymouth.
III
They eased her up when she was done.
(Chorus) Heave away, my bullies.
