King Billy Sessions
  All for me grog  
         
   

Chorus
All for me grog, me jolly jolly grog
All for me beer and tobacco
For I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
And across the western ocean I must wander

Where are me boots, me noggin', noggin' boots?
All gone for beer and tobacco
For the heels they are wore out and the soles are knocked about
And me toes are looking out for better weather

Chorus

Where is me shirt, my noggin', noggin' shirt?
All gone for beer and tobacco
For the collar is wore out, and the front is knocked about
And the tail is looking out for better weather

Chorus

Where is me bed, me noggin' noggin bed
It's all gone for beer and tobacco
Well I lent it to a whore and now the sheets are all tore
And the springs are looking out for better whether.

Chorus

Where is me bed, me noggin', noggin' bed
It's all sold for beer and tobacco
You see I sold it to the girls until the springs were all in twirls
And the sheets they're lookin' out for better weather

Chorus

I'm sick in the head and I haven't been to bed
Since first I came ashore with me plunder
I see centipedes and snakes and I'm full of pains and aches
So we'd better make a push-out over yonder

Chorus
