Blow The Man Down Harry H Corbett, with Ewan MacColl & A. L. Lloyd, in Blow The Man Down, Topic TSCD464 (TRL3, The Singing Sailor. Ewan MacColl, A. L. Lloyd and Harry H. Corbett, 1956?) As I was a-walkin' down Paradise Street To me way, hay – blow the man down! A flash looking packet I chanced for to meet Oh, gi' me some time to blow the man down! Blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down To me way, hay – blow the man down! Blow him right back to Liverpool town Gi' me some time to blow the man down! She was bowlin' along with the wind blowin' free To me way, hay – blow the man down! She clewed up her courses an' waited for me Oh, gi' me some time to blow the man down! She was round in the counter and bluff in the bow To me way, hay – blow the man down! So I hold in all sailing cryin', well enough now! Oh, gi' me some time to blow the man down! Where she did hail from I really can't tell To me way, hay – blow the man down! But I gave her my flipper, we're both bound for hell! Oh, gi' me some time to blow the man down! Come all you young sailors, take warning by me To me way, hay – blow the man down! Never take a young Liverpool gal on your knee Oh, gi' me some time to blow the man down!
