I saw a flash packet, bound westward away She was bound for the westward where the wild waters flow She's a Liverpool packet, oh lord let her go CHO: Bound away oh, bound away oh Through the ice, sleet and snow. She's a Liverpool packet, Oh Lord, let her go. And now we re leaving the sweet salthouse dock All the boys and the girls to the pierhead do flock All the boys and the girls they all shout or roar She's a Liverpool packet, Oh Lord, let her go. And now we are waiting in the Mersey so free Awaiting the tug for to take us to sea Then we'll round the rock light, where the salt tides do blow She's a Liverpool packet, Oh Lord, let her go. She ??????? main topsail ??????? jib sheet She ??????? fore and aft boys you'll get no damn sleep Come out boys God damn yers, come out one and all For over your head lies a bonny black ball And now we are sailing the Atlantic so wide That the hands are all ordered to scrub the ship's side Then he told his ???????????????????????? For kicking Jack Williams, commands this Black Ball And now we are arriving in old New York town And we'll head for the bowery and let sorrows drown With the girls and the beer boys, we'll let the salts blow She's a Liverpool packet, Oh Lord, let her go.
