Lyrics Leave Her Johnny (Sea Shanty) - Steve Void , Koosen , Strange Fruits Music

Oh I thought I heard the Old Man say
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
Tomorrow you will get your pay
And it's time for us to leave her
Oh, the wind was foul and the sea ran high
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
She shipped it green and none went by
And it's time for us to leave her

Leave her, Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
Hey!
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her

Time for us to leave her
Hey!

Leave her, Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her
Hey!

Hey!
Oh I thought I heard the Old Man say
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
Tomorrow you will get your pay
And it's time for us to leave her
We swear by rote for want of more
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
But now we're through so we'll go on shore
And it's time for us to leave her

Leave her, Johnny, leave her, huh!
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her, hey!
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her

Time for us to leave her, hey!
Leave her, Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her

Leave her, Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her, Johnny, leave her
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her, hey!

Hey!

Hey!

For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her
Hey!
