The Dreadnoughts - Bold Reilly

The anchor is weighed and the rags we've all set
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
Them Liverpool judies we'll never forget,
Bold Reilly O, gone away

Goodbye my sweetheart goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
Goodbye my darling goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, gone away

The rains is raining all the day long
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
The northerly winds they blow so strong
Bold Reilly O, gone away

Goodbye my darling goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
Goodbye my sweetheart goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, gone away

Cheer up Mary-Ellen and don't ya look glum
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
Come white-stocking day we'll be drinking hot rum
Bold Reilly O, gone away

Goodbye my sweetheart goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
Goodbye my darling goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, gone away

We're outward bound for Valipo Bay
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
Get cracking me lads it's a hell of a way
Bold Reilly O, gone away

Goodbye my darling goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, Bold Reilly
Goodbye my sweetheart goodbye my dear O
Bold Reilly O, gone away
Bold Reilly O, gone away
