William Pint & Felicia Dale (Seattle, WA) recorded a song on their "Port of Dreams" CD, which they call "Heave, Boys, Away." Here are the lyrics they use: HEAVE, BOYS, AWAY Walk her 'round for we're rollin' homeward Heave me boys together The bully old ship is a lyin' windward Heave me boys away We're taut and trim and the wind is blowin' Snug up aloft and the ship she's goin Heave her, and we'll break her, For the old ship's a-rollin home Oh sing and heave and heave and sing Heave me boys together Oh heave and make the capstan spring It's blow you winds to London town-o Heave me boys away Where the girls are dressed so fine-o Heave her, and we'll break her, For the old ship's a-rollin' home Oh the sail's trimmed taut and the ship she's goin' Heave me boys together Oh move her around for the winds are blowin' Heave me boys away So goodbye gals were bound to leave you Goodbye sally and goodbye Lulu Heave her, and we'll break her, For the old ship's a-rollin home
