Whip!

Refrain:

Jamboree, whip Jamboree
Around Cape Horn weve been a sailn, whip
Jamboree, whip Jamboree
oh Jenny, get your oatcake done.

And now me lads be of good cheer
For the Irish Land will soon draw near
And in a few days more we'll sight Cape Clear
oh Jenny, get your oatcake done

Refrain

Now Cape Clear, it is in sight,
we’ll be off Holyhead by tomorrow night,
and we’ll shape our courde for the Rocklight;
oh Jenny, get your oatcake done.

Refrain

Now my lads, we're round the Rock,
All hammocks lashed and chests all locked;
We'll haul er into the Waterloo Dock,
oh Jenny, get your oatcake done.

Refrain

And now we'll be hauling trough the dock
oh the pretty young girls on the pier do flock
There's my Jinny in a new pink frock
oh Jenny, get your oatcake done.

Refrain

Now, my lads, we're all in dock,
We'll be off to Dan Lowrie's on the Spot;
And now we'll have a good roundabout,
oh Jenny, get your oatcake done.
