Come along, boys, and go with me,
Sail away, ladies, sail away.
We'll go down to Tennessee,
Sail away, ladies, sail away.
Don't you rock 'em Daddy-O,
Don't you rock 'em Daddy-O,
Don't you rock 'em Daddy-O,
Sail away, ladies, sail away.
Hush little baby don't you cry
Sail away, ladies, sail away.
You'll be an angel by an' by,
Sail away, ladies, sail away,
Don't you rock 'em Daddy-O,
Don't you rock 'em Daddy-O,
Don't you rock 'em Daddy-O,
Sail away, ladies, sail away.
If I ever get my way (Sail away, ladies. Sail away.)
Tennessee is where I'll stay. (Sail away, ladies. Sail away.)
Ever I get my new house done.
Give my old one to my son.
