In de big canoe

I o'er ocean swim me,

Jack and merry crew

Give good liquor to me.

Over sand and rocks

Teach me sail, no paddle ;

Teach me den to box,

So to use my daddle. Tol, lol, lol, &c.

Oh! I suck'd the grog,

Brandy, gin, and rumme,

Vid de jolly dog,

Den to London comme;

Vat you tink. of dat:

Rice my hair did powder,

Rub my head vid fat,

Dat's to make me prowder. Tol, lol, lol.&c.

Snug as little mouse

From de vind and veather,

Drag'd about in house

Made of trus and leather :

To de woman fair

Up de stair I trottee;

She did sit on chair,

On the floor I squattee. Tol, lol, lol, &c.

But dis lady fine

Call me ugly divil,

Guinea, glass of wine,

Den so sweet and civil;

In her spousy jump

As of kiss I beg her,

Give my head de tump,

Cry, get out dam Negar. Tol, lol, lol, &c.
