Lyrics
It's been a long time since you've seen her
Could have been three years or more
Will she be waiting when we dock, boys?
Or like the others will she be gone?
It's one more pull boys, that'll do boys
Soon we'll draw alongside
Hoist her upward, swing her inboard
For the journey's nearly done
Well, you're looking mighty smart, boy
Dressed up in your number ones
You've scrounged a new blade from the purser
To scrape the bum-fluff from off your chin
It's one more pull boys, that'll do boys
Soon we'll draw alongside
Hoist her upward, swing her inboard
For the journey's nearly done
When we've fixed those bow and stern lines
And you've scuttled down the gangway
If she's waiting there, just kiss her
Turn around, give us a smile
It's one more pull boys, that'll do boys
Soon we'll draw alongside
Hoist her upward, swing her inboard
For the journey's nearly done
Well, we too will go ashore soon
Get drunk in the clubs and bars
Then stagger homeward, pockets empty
Like so many times before
It's one more pull boys, that'll do boys
Soon we'll draw alongside
Hoist her upward, swing her inboard
For the journey's nearly done
Well, a man may take a wife, boy
And a man may take a mistress
But a sailor has his ship-boys
And his mistress it is the sea
It's one more pull boys, that'll do boys
Soon we'll draw alongside
Hoist her upward, swing her inboard
For the journey's nearly done
It's one more pull boys, that'll do boys
Soon we'll draw alongside
Hoist her upward, swing her inboard
For the journey now is done
