Los Angeles Express (Jan. 26, 1919):

"I was in London in the cold month of December,
And all of my wages I had spent.
Oh how it went today I can't remember,
But I down unto a shipping office went.
In those days there was a great demand for sailors,
From London around Cape Horn and back to France,
So I shipped me aboard a bark called the Oxford,
Oh, here's to take a drink to my advance.

                      CHORUS.

Paddy go whack, take in the slack, and heave away the capstan,
   Heave a pull, heave a pull.
For we're bound, ship staysails, boys be handy,
   We're bound to Valparaiso round Cape Horn."
