I'm bound away to leave you,
Don't let my parting grieve you,
We're homeward bound tomorrow.
I'll leave you without sorrow,
One more day, Johnny, one more day,
Oh rock and roll me over for one more day.
Hear the Old Man growling,
Hear the mate howling,
Hear the captain pawling,
Hear the pilot bawling,
One more day, Johnny, one more day,
Oh rock and roll me over for one more day.
Hear the gulls cawing,
One more day rolling,
One more day furling,
One more day cursing,
One more day pumping,
One more day bracing,
One more day working,
Oh rock and roll me over,
One more day, Johnny, one more day,
Oh rock and roll me over for one more day.
Come row me to my lover,
The starlight be my cover,
No gales nor heavy weather,
Come rock and roll me over,
One more day, Johnny, one more day,
Oh rock and roll me over for one more day.
