<< Back to The Dubliners Song List
Version 1
[Intro]
Dm C Dm Dm Dm Dm
[Verse 1]
F Dm C Dm C Dm
When first I landed in Liverpool, I went upon a spree
C Dm F Dm C F
Me money alas I spent it fast, got drunk as drunk could be
Dm C Dm F Dm C F
And when that me money was all gone, 'twas then that I wanted more
Dm F C Dm C Dm
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more
[Chorus]
F C Dm C Dm
Once more, boys, once more, to go to sea once more
Dm F C Dm C Dm
But a man must be blind to make up his mind to go to sea once more
[Verse 2]
F Dm C Dm C Dm
I spent the night with Angeline, too drunk to roll in bed
Am C Dm F Dm C F
Me watch was new and me money too, in the morning with them she fled
Dm C Dm F Dm C F
And as I walked the streets about, the whores they all did roar
Dm F C Am Dm C Dm
There goes Jack Strapp, the poor sailorlad, he must go to sea once more
[Chorus]
F C Dm C Dm
Once more, boys, once more, to go to sea once more
Dm F C Dm C Dm
There goes Jack Strapp, the poor sailorlad, he must go to sea once more
[Verse 3]
F Dm C Dm C Dm
And as I walked the streets about, I met with the Rapper Brown
Am C Dm F Dm C F
I asked him for to take me on and he looked at me with a frown
Dm C Dm F Dm C F
He said last time you was paid off with me you could no score
Dm F C Dm C Dm
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance and I'll send you to sea once more
[Chorus]
F C Dm C Dm
Once more, boys, once more, to go to sea once more
Dm F C Dm C Dm
But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance and I'll send you to sea once more
[Verse 4]
F Dm C Dm C Dm
He shipped me on board of a whaling ship bound for the arctic seas
C Dm F Dm C F
Where the cold winds blow through the frost and snow and Jamaica rum would freeze
Dm C Dm F Dm C F
But worse to bear, I'd no hard weather gear for I'd spent all me money on shore
Dm F C Am Dm C Dm
'twas then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more
[Chorus]
F C Dm C Dm
No more, boys, no more, to go to sea no more
Dm F C Dm C Dm
'twas then that I wished that I was dead and could go to sea no more
[Verse 5]
F Dm C Dm C Dm
So come all you bold seafaring men, who listen to me song
C Dm F Dm C F
When you come off them long trips, I'll have you not go wrong
Dm C Dm F Dm C F
Take my advice, drink no strong drink, don't go sleeping with them whores
Dm F C Dm C Dm
Get married instead and spend all night in bed and go to sea no more
[Chorus]
F C Dm C Dm
No more, boys, no more, to go to sea no more
Dm F C Dm C Dm
Get married instead and spend all night in bed and go to sea no more
