Lyrics
Oh, the times are hard and the wages low Leave her, Johnny, leave her I'll pack my bag and go below It's time for us to leave her It's growl you may but go you must: Leave her, Johnny, leave her It matters not if last or first It's time for us to leave her I'm a-getting' thin and a-growin' sad Leave her, Johnny, leave her Since first I joined this woodenclad It's time for us to leave her I thought I heard the first mate say Leave her, Johnny, leave her "Just one more drag and then belay" It's time for us to leave her The work was hard and the voyage long: Leave her, Johnny, leave her The seas were high and the gales were strong It's time for us to leave her The sails are furled: our work is done Leave her, Johnny, leave her And now on shore we'll have some fun It's time for us to leave her
