Come, all you young fellows who follow the sea,
Hey! Blow the man down;
Now pray pay attention and listen to me.
Chorus:
Give me some time to blow the man down.
I’ll sing you a song, a good song of the sea,
Hey! Blow the man down;
And trust that you’ll join in the chorus with me.
Chorus
On board the Black Baller I first served my time,
Hey! Blow the man down;
And on the Black Baller I wasted my time
Chorus
As I was a-walking down Paradise Street,
Hey! Blow the man down;
A pretty young damsel I chanced for to meet.
Chorus
Says she then to me, “Sir, will you stand a treat?”
Hey! Blow the man down;
“Delighted” say I, “for a charmer so sweet.”
