The Roseabella

The Roseabella

Oh, we're going on board the Roseabella
Oh, we're going on board the Roseabella
We're going on board, right down to board
The saucy Roseabella

Farewell ye ladies of London town
Farewell ye ladies of London town
We hate to leave, but we're going on down
To board the Roseabella

She's a deep water ship with a deep water crew
She's a deep water ship with a deep water crew
She could hug the shore, but damned if we do
Aboard the Roseabella

Around Cape Horn where the dolphins play
Around Cape Horn where the dolphins play
Around Cape Horn is a mighty long way
Aboard the Roseabella

Pretty Nancy is my love true
Pretty Nancy is my love true
She could handle this bully crew
Aboard the Roseabella

Nancy brought whiskey for all the crew
Nancy brought whiskey for all the crew
She wanted to see which man would do
Aboard the Roseabella
