All for Me Grogg Songtext
And it′s all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
I′m sick in the head and I haven't been to bed
Since first I came ashore with me plunder
I've seen centipedes and snakes
And my head is full off aches
And I′ll have to make a path for way out yonder
And it′s all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where are me boots, me noggin′ noggin' boots
They′re all sold for beer and tobacco
See the sole's were gettin′ thin
And the uppers were letting in
And the heels are looking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where is me shirt me noggin′ noggin′ shirt
It's all sold for beer and tobacco
You see the sleeves they were worn out
And the collar been turned of those
And the tail is looking out for better weather
And it′s all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where is me wife me noggin′ noggin' wife
She′s all sold for beer and tobacco
You see her front it was worn out
And her tail got kicked about
And I'm sure she's looking out for better weather
And it′s all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I′ve spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where is me bed me noggin' noggin′ bed
It's all sold for beer and tobacco
You see, I sold it to the girls
Until the springs are all in twirls
And the sheets they′re looking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I′ve spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
I′m sick in the head and I haven't been to bed
Since first I came ashore with me plunder
I've seen centipedes and snakes
And my head is full off aches
And I′ll have to make a path for way out yonder
And it′s all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where are me boots, me noggin′ noggin' boots
They′re all sold for beer and tobacco
See the sole's were gettin′ thin
And the uppers were letting in
And the heels are looking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where is me shirt me noggin′ noggin′ shirt
It's all sold for beer and tobacco
You see the sleeves they were worn out
And the collar been turned of those
And the tail is looking out for better weather
And it′s all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I've spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where is me wife me noggin′ noggin' wife
She′s all sold for beer and tobacco
You see her front it was worn out
And her tail got kicked about
And I'm sure she's looking out for better weather
And it′s all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I′ve spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
Where is me bed me noggin' noggin′ bed
It's all sold for beer and tobacco

And the sheets they′re looking out for better weather
And it's all for me grog, me jolly, jolly grog
All for me, beer and tobacco
Well I′ve spent all me tin with the lassies drinking gin
Far across the western ocean I must wander
