Blow the Man Down

As I was a-walking down Paradise Street
To me way-hey, blow the man down
A flash-looking packet I chanced to meet
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
Blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me way-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back to Liverpool town
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
She was bowing along with the wind blowing free
To me way-hey, blow the man down
She cleared up her courses and waited for me
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
Blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me way-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back to Liverpool town
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
She was rounding the counter and bluffing the bell
To me way-hey, blow the man down
So I hauled in all sail and cried "Weigh an' off and hail"
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
Blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me way-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back to Liverpool town
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
Where she did hail from I really can't tell
To me way-hey, blow the man down
But I gave her my flipper, we're both bound for Hell
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
Blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me way-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back to Liverpool town
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
So all you young sailors take warning by me
To me way-hey, blow the man down
Never take a young Liverpool girl on your knee
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
Blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me way-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back to Liverpool town
Oh, give me some time to blow the man down
