CLEAR AWAY IN THE MORNING
by Gordon Bok
Take me back on the bay, boys,
Clear away in the morning
I don't want to spend my pay boys
O bring her round
Take me back on the bay, boys
I don't want to go ashore, boys
Captain, don't you leave me
There's no one here that needs me
Nancy, o my Nancy
She never played it fancy
Bring me wine and brandy
I'd only ask for Nancy
Captain, don't let the main down
Captain, don't let the chain run
Captain, don't you need me
There's nothing I can do, boy
Nancy, o my Nancy
Nancy, o my Nancy
Take me back on the bay, boys
I don't want to go ashore boys
