St. George's Folly - All For Me Grog

I'm sick in the head, I haven't been to bed
Since first I came ashore with me plunder
I see centipedes and snakes and I'm full of pains and aches
Think it's time I take a trip out over yonder
And it's all for me grog, me jolly jolly grog
It's all for me beer and tobacco
Oh I've spent all of me tin on the lassies drinkin' gin
And across the western ocean I must wander
Where are me boots?
(Away, you've sold your boots)
They're all gone for beer and tobacco
Oh, the leather's all worn out and the soles are knocked about
Now my toes are poking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly jolly grog
It's all for me beer and tobacco
Oh I've spent all of me tin on the lassies drinkin' gin
And across the western ocean I must wander
Where is me shirt?
(Away, you've sold your shirt)
It's all gone for beer and tobacco
Oh, the color's all run out and the tails are knocked about
See my nipples poking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly jolly grog
It's all for me beer and tobacco
Oh I've spent all of me tin on the lassies drinkin' gin
And across the western ocean I must wander
And where is me bed?
(Away, you've sold your bed)
It's all gone for beer and tobacco
With the mattress stained and tore, like it's been through twenty wars
And the springs are poking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly jolly grog
It's all for me beer and tobacco
Oh I've spent all of me tin on the lassies drinkin' gin
And across the western ocean I must wander
I'm sick in the head, I haven't been to bed
Since first I came ashore with me plunder
I see centipedes and snakes and I'm full of pains and aches
Think it's time I take a trip out over yonder
And
It's all for me grog, me jolly jolly grog
It's all for me beer and tobacco
Oh I've spent all of me tin on the lassies drinkin' gin
And across the western ocean I must wander
Across the western ocean I must wander
Across the western ocean I must wander
