Key: D# minor
Verse 1
For Lundy Island's drawing near,
So thump your bed and stow your gear,
Oh, sing till the work is done.
Am
Em
Am
Pigtail sailor, hang on behind.
Jamboree whip, jamboree whip,
Oh, sing till the work is done.
Now Houghton Point, it is in sight
And on the port bow is
Lundy's light
We'll be stoking up your fires tonight
Oh, sing till the work is done
Woo!
Jamboree, whip, jamboree
Oh, you pigtail sailor, hangin' on behind
Whip!
Jamboree, whip, jamboree
Oh, sing till the work is done
A pilot gig is up ahead,
to the weather me boys are
heaving on the lead.
Tonight we'll sleep in
a dry feather bed,
oh sing till the work is done.
Em
Am
hang on behind you.
And when we reach that Wareham Quay,
The pretty little maids will come down to see,
With their long -tailed draws
all over their knee,
Oh, sing till the work is done!
Jamboree whip, jamboree whip,
Pigtail sailor hanging on behind,
Whip, jamboree whip, jamboree,
Oh, sing till the work is done!
And now I'm safe and on the shore
I don't give a
damn how the winds do roar
I've dropped me anchor,
go to sea no more
I'll sing till the work is done
Jamboree Whip, Jamboree,
Oh you pigtail sailor, hanging on behind!
Whip! Jamboree Whip, Jamboree,
Oh sing til the work is done!
Last Time! Jamboree Whip, Jamboree,
Whip! Jamboree
Whip, Jamboree,
Oh sing til the work is done! you
