Haul on the bowline, homeward we are going
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!

Haul on the bowline, before she start a-rolling
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!

Haul on the bowline, the Captain is a-growling
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!

Haul on the bowline, so early in the morning
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!

Haul on the bowline, to Bristol we are going
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!

Haul on the bowline, Kitty is my darling
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!

Haul on the bowline, [bad word] from Liverpool
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!

Haul on the bowline, It’s far cry to pay day
Haul on the bowlin', the bowlin' haul!
