Bring 'Em Down
In Liverpool I was born,
Bring 'em down
And London is my home from home.
Bring 'em down
Them Liverpool girls I do admire,
Bring 'em down
They'll set your rigging all afire.
Bring 'em down
It's 'round Cape Horn we all must go,
Bring 'em down
Around Cape Stiff through the frost and snow.
Bring 'em down
It's rise and shake her is the cry,
Bring 'em down
The bloody topmast sheeve is dry.
Bring 'em down
It's 'round Cape Stiff we all must go,
Bring 'em down
Then up the coast to Callao.
Bring 'em down
Them Callao girls are mighty fine,
Bring 'em down
They're never a day behind their time.
Bring 'em down
Then its back home to Liverpool,
Bring 'em down
Blow me pay like a bloody fool.
Bring 'em down
I'm Liverpool born and Liverpool bred,
Bring 'em down
Thick in the arm and thick in the head.
Bring 'em down
Its one more pull and that'll do,
Bring 'em down
And we're the bullies to kick her through.
Bring 'em down
Growl you may but go you must,
Bring 'em down
If you growl too loud your head they'll bust.
Bring 'em down
