Lyrics

[Verse 1] He bang, she bang, daddy shot a bear Shot him in the stern, me boys, and never turned a hair We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Chorus] Hoo-ra! What the hell's the row? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Verse 2] Pat get back, take in yer slack, and heave away, me boys Heave away, me bully boys, why don't ya make some noise? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Chorus] Hoo-ra! What the hell's the row? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Verse 3] Rock her block, chock'a block, heave the capstan round Fish that flamin' anchor up for we are outward bound We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Chorus] Hoo-ra! What the hell's the row? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Verse 4] Out chocks, two blocks, heave away or bust Bend your backs, me bully boys, kick up some flamin' dust We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Chorus] Hoo-ra! What the hell's the row? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Verse 5] Roll her boys, bowl her boys, give her flamin' gyp Drag the anchor off the mud and let the bastard rip We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Chorus] Hoo-ra! What the hell's the row? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Verse 6] Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, the mud hook is in sight 'Tis a hell of a way to the gals that wait and the old Nantucket Light We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Chorus] Hoo-ra! What the hell's the row? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo [Outro] Hoo-ra! What the hell's the row? We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo We're all from the railroad too-ra-loo And the old bloke pickin' on the banjo
