The good ship Joe came into town just as she was a-sinking
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
The crew came to the tavern and started into drinking
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

Way, haul away
You've drunk too much so we'll haul away
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

We served the whole damn crew and the crowd was getting thicker
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
But they sailors they got drunk 'cause they couldn't hold their liquor
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

The matey he was first, a sailor bold and able
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
But the ale it proved too much and he passed out on the table
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

Way, haul away
You've drunk too much so we'll haul away
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

The bosun he came in and he started getting handy
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
But we kicked him to the street 'cause he drank up all our brandy
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

The swabbie came in next, said my decks could use a cleaning
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
I would have told him yes but with rum he started leaning
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

Way, haul away
You've drunk too much so we'll haul away
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

The cabin boy was hoping for an early taste of gin
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
So we threw him in the barrel and we taught him how to swim
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

The gunnie he was drunk, and was calling for a girlie
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
But he found it was no use for his gun had fired early
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

Way, haul away
You've drunk too much so we'll haul away
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

The captain's daughter came and we all went out to hide her
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
But the captain didn't care, he was drinking Windsor cider
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

The good ship Joe was hit and we watched it sink with sorrow
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
But the crew they didn't care, they'll be back again tomorrow
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

Way, haul away
You've drunk too much so we'll haul away
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe

Way, haul away
You've drunk too much so we'll haul away
Way, haul away, we'll haul away, Joe
