Far have I traveled and long has it been
Since Nancy the true love of mine have I seen
Ha 'way the wind blaw and fill up tha sheet
In the arms a 'me Nancy's where I'll be taneet
Well since a last seen her I've sailed the world ower
And my little Jackie he'll be about fower
Ha 'way the wind blaw for we're nearly yam
In the arms a 'me Nancy and my little bairn
Far to the East we baked in the Sun
Now we are warm by hard work and rum
Ha 'way the wind blaw as cauld as ya will
For I knar my Nancy she's waiting still
