๐ Lyrics
Well here we are, we're back again
Safe upon the shore
In Belfast Town we'd like to stay
And go to sea no more
We'll go into a public house
And drink 'till we're content
For the lassies, they will love us
'till our money is all spent
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
How Johnny did you miss me
When the nights were long and cold
Or did you find another love
In your arms to hold
Says he I thought of only you
While on the sea afar
So come up the stairs and cuddle
With your Jolly Roving Tar
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
Well in each other's arms the rode
'till the break of day
When the sailor rose and said farewell
I must be on me way
Why don't you leave me Johnny lad
I thought you'd marry me
Says he I can't get married
For I'm married to the sea
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
Well come all you bonnie lasses
Now a warning take by me
Never trust and Irishman
An inch above your knee
He'll tease you and he'll please you
But when he's had his fun
He'll leave you in the morning
With a daughter or a son
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
Safe upon the shore
In Belfast Town we'd like to stay
And go to sea no more
We'll go into a public house
And drink 'till we're content
For the lassies, they will love us
'till our money is all spent
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
How Johnny did you miss me
When the nights were long and cold
Or did you find another love
In your arms to hold
Says he I thought of only you
While on the sea afar
So come up the stairs and cuddle
With your Jolly Roving Tar
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
Well in each other's arms the rode
'till the break of day
When the sailor rose and said farewell
I must be on me way
Why don't you leave me Johnny lad
I thought you'd marry me
Says he I can't get married
For I'm married to the sea
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
Well come all you bonnie lasses
Now a warning take by me
Never trust and Irishman
An inch above your knee
He'll tease you and he'll please you
But when he's had his fun
He'll leave you in the morning
With a daughter or a son
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
So pass the flowin' bowl
Boys there's whiskey in the jar
And we'll drink to all the lassies
And the Jolly Roving Tar
