Ol' Bully John from Baltimore I knew him well, that son-of-a-whore (or ...on the Eastern Shore) Ol' Bully John was the boy for me A bully on shore and a bucko at sea Ol' Bully John I knew him well But now he'd dead and gone to hell. Oh were you ever in Liverpool? In Liverpool, that Yankee school Oh a hundred years is a very long time Oh a hundred years is a very long time Note: A halyard shanty From Shanties from the Seven Seas, Hugill Last two verses from singing of A.L.
