Lyrics
(Traditional - arr. gbs / hallett)
A great big sea hove in long beach Whack fol-or-al ta-dee di-dle, I do A great big sea hove in long beach And granny snooks she lost her speech To me right fol didy fol dee
A great big sea hove in the harbour Whack fol-or-al ta-dee di-dle, I do A great big sea hove in the harbour And hove right up to keough's parlour To me right fol didy fol dee
Mother dear I wants a sack Whack fol-or-al ta-dee di-dle, I do Mother dear I wants a sack With beads and buttons all down me back To me right fol didy fol dee
Me boot is broke, me frock is tore Whack fol-or-al ta-dee di-dle, I do Me boot is broke, me frock is tore But granny snooks I do adore To me right fol didy fol dee
Fish is gone and the flour is high Whack fol-or-al ta-dee di-dle, I do Fish is gone and the flour is high Granny snooks she can't have i To me right fol didy fol dee
She will have me in the fall Whack fol-or-al ta-dee di-dle, I do If she don't I'll hoist my sail Hove right up to old cannaille To me right fol didy fol dee
A great big sea hove in long beach Whack fol-or-al ta-dee di-dle, I do A great big sea hove in long beach And granny snooks she lost her speech To me right fol didy fol dee
