Congo River

Oh, was you ever on the congo river
Blow, boys, blow
Black fever makes the white man shiver
Blow me bully boys blow
An Irish ship came down the river
Blow, boys, blow
Her masts and yards they shone like silver
Blow me bully boys blow
And blow, me boys, and blow forever
Blow, boys, blow
Blow me down the Congo River
Blow me bully boys blow
And yonder comes the Arrow packet
Blow, boys, blow
She fires her guns can’t you hear the racket
Blow me bully boys blow
And who do you think was the skipper of her
Blow, boys, blow
Why Bully Hayes the sailor of her
Blow me bully boys blow
And blow, me boys, and blow forever
Blow, boys, blow
Blow me down the Congo River
Blow me bully boys blow
And what do think they had for cargo
Blow, boys, blow
Why black sheep that had run the embargo
Blow me bully boys blow
And what do you think they had for dinner
Blow, boys, blow
Why a Frenchman’s heart and a Scotsman’s liver
Blow me bully boys blow
And blow, me boys, and blow forever
Blow, boys, blow
Blow me down the Congo River
Blow me bully boys blow
And blow, me boys, and blow forever
Blow, boys, blow
Blow me down the Congo River
Blow me bully boys blow
