Haul on the bowline, our bully ship's a-rolling
Ch:
Haul on the bowline, the bowline, Haul!

Haul on the bowline, Kitty is my darlin,

Haul on the bowline, Kitty lives at Liverpool,

Haul on the bowline, the old man is a-growlin'

Haul on the bowline, it's a far cry to payday

Haul on the bowline, so early in the morning

From Roll and Go by Joanna Carver Colcord (1924)
