Darling you know I love you, I love you,
Oh, oh, o-oh, oh!
I’ll stay here if you ask me to, ask me to, 
Oh, oh, o-oh, oh!
We spent the night at long boat quay,
It drains the confidence out of me,
Those little shore boats to expect,
Oh sailor, you had better be good.

Darling you know I love you, I love you. 
Oh, oh, o-oh, oh!
I’ll stay here if you ask me to, ask me to!
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
Standing there lookin' so sweet,
Tell me that I'm braver than am,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, 

Those steamboats makin' the only sounds
Reminding me that I'm not aground

You know that I will never forget
The days we spend and could have
Long boat pass, long boat pass,
Let me through is all I ask.
Long boat pass, long boat pass,
Let me through is all I ask.

Please let me through we must drift off to sea
Oh, oh, oh
We must make do though, the waves crash my...
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
