Ships may come and ships may go,<br>
As long as the seas do roll,<br>
But a sailor lad just like his dad,<br>
He loves the flowing bowl,<br>
A woman ashore, he does adore a girl<br>
That's plump and round<br>
When his money's all gone,<br>
It's the same old song,<br>
<q>Get up, Jack! John, sit down!</q>
</p>
<p>
(Chorus)<br>
Come along come along, me jolly brave boys,<br>
There's plenty more grog in the jar,<br>
We'll plough the briney ocean line,<br>
Like a jolly rovin' tar!
</p>
<p>
When Jack's ashore, he'll make his way<br>
To some ol' boardin' house<br>
He's welcomed in, with rum and gin<br>
Likewise with pork and scouse<br>
He'll spend and spend and ne'er offend,<br>
Till he lies drunk on the ground,<br>
When his money's all gone,<br>
It's the same ol' song,<br>
<q>Get up, Jack! John, sit down!</q>
</p>
<p>(Chorus)</p>
<p>
Then Jack will slip on board some ship,<br>
Bound for India or Japan,<br>
In Asia there, them ladies fair,<br>
Love a sailor man,<br>
He'll go ashore and he'll not scorn,<br>
To buy some girl her gown,<br>
When his money's all gone,<br>
It's the same old song,<br>
<q>Get up, Jack! John, sit down!</q>
</p>
<p>(Chorus)</p>
<p>
When Jack is worn and weatherbeat,<br>
Too old to cruise about,<br>
They'll let him stop in some rum shop,<br>
Till eight bells calls him out,<br>
He'll throw his hands high,<br>
And loud he'll cry,<br>
<q>Thank God, I'm homeward bound!</q><br>
When his money's all gone,<br>
It's the same old song,<br>
<q>Get up, Jack! John, sit down!</q><br>
</p>
<p>(Chorus ×2)</p>
