Cape Cod girls
ain’t got no combs,
Heave away, haul away!
They comb their hair
with a codfish bone,
And we’re bound away for Australia!
So heave her up, me bully bully boys,
Heave away, haul away!
Heave her up,
why don’t you make some noise?
And we’re bound away for Australia!
Cape Cod boys
ain’t got no sleds,
Heave away, haul away!
They ride down hills
on a codfish head.
And we’re bound away for Australia!
So heave her up, me bully bully boys,
Heave away, haul away!
Heave her up,
why don’t you make some noise?
And we’re bound away for Australia!
Cape Cod mothers
don’t bake no pies,
Heave away, haul away!
They feed their children
codfish eyes.
And we’re bound away for Australia!
So heave her up, me bully bully boys,
Heave away, haul away!
Heave her up,
why don’t you make some noise?
And we’re bound away for Australia!
Cape Cod cats
ain’t got no tails,
Heave away, haul away!
They got blown off
in northeast gales.
And we’re bound away for Australia!
