Me name is Uncle Jack me lads
And if you'll lend an ear
I'll tell you how I sailed the
Seven seas so come and hear.
Just listen to the stories of
Me triumphs and me woes!
I'll tell you the adventures of
This ancient matelot.
He'll tell you the adventures of
This ancient matelot.
We sailed around Jamaica and
I walked upon the sand
We waved at South America
Although we didn't land
Down under in Australia
I boxed a kangaroo
And heard an aboriginal
Play on his didgeridoo
And heard an aboriginal
Play on his didgeridoo.
Saw dragons of Komodo,
Saw the red orang-utan.
I bought a silk kimono
When I landed in Japan.
We crossed the Indian Ocean
And we anchored in Bombay
But there's now't so fair as can compare
To coming home again.
There's now't so fair as can compare
To coming home again.
