- Barbara Dickson the dreadnought 歌詞
- Barbara Dickson
Theres a saucy wild packet, and a packet of fame
She belongs to New York,
and the Dreadnoughts her name
She is bound to the westward where the stormy winds blow
Bound away into the westward,
in the Dreadnought well go
Derry down, down, down derry down.
Lovely~
Now the time of her sailing is now drawing nigh
Farewell, pretty May, I must bid you goodbye
Im farewell to old England and all there we hold dear
Bound away into the westward,
in the Dreadnought well steer
Derry down, down, down derry down.
And the Dreadnought is pulling out of Waterloo Dock,
Where the boys and the girls to the pierheads do flock;
And they will give us three cheers while their tears do flow,
Saying, 'God bless the Dreadnought, whereer she may go!'
Derry down, down, down derry down.
And the Dreadnought is bowlin down the wild Irish Sea
Her passengers are merry, their hearts full of glee
While her sailors like lions walk the decks to and fro
Shes a Liverpool packet, oh, Lord, let her go
Derry down, down, down derry down.
And the Dreadnought is a-crossing the Atlantic so wide
While the dark, heavy seas roll along her black sides
With her sails neatly spread, and the Red Cross to show
Shes a Liverpool packet, oh Lord, let her go
Derry down, down, down derry down.
And its a health to the Dreadnought, and to all her brave crew
To bold Captain Samuel and his officers too
Talk about your flash packets, Swallow Tail and Black Ball
Where the dreadnoughts the flier that all trips them all
Derry down, down, down derry down.
Derry, down derry down.
Thank you
