And it's all for my grub, my jolly, jolly grub It's all for my beer and tobacco
For I spent all my time on the ladies' drinking gin Far across the western ocean I will wander
Oh, where are my boots, my noggin, noggin boots They've all gone for beer and tobacco
For the heels are worn out and the toes are kicked about And the soul is looking out for better weather
And it's all for my grub, my jolly, jolly grub It's all for my beer and tobacco
For I spent all my time on the ladies' drinking gin Far across the western ocean I will wander
Oh, where is my shirt, my noggin, noggin shirt It's all gone for beer and tobacco
For the collar is torn and the sleeves are worn And the earth is looking out for better weather
And it's all for my grub, my jolly, jolly grub It's all for my beer and tobacco
For I spent all my time on the ladies' drinking gin Far across the western ocean I will wander
Well, I'm sick in the head and I haven't been to bed Since Forsyth came ashore for me plunder
I have seen centipedes and snakes and my head is full of aches And this time I made a pact for when you wander
And it's all for my grub, my jolly, jolly grub It's all for my beer and tobacco
For I spent all my time on the ladies' drinking gin Far across the western ocean I will wander
And it's all for my grub, my jolly, jolly grub It's all for my beer and tobacco
For I spent all my time on the ladies' drinking gin Far across the western ocean I will wander
For I spent all my time on the ladies' drinking gin Far across the western ocean I will wander
And it's all for my grub, my jolly, jolly grub It's all for my beer and tobacco
For I spent all my time on the ladies' drinking gin Far across the western ocean I will wander
