Chorus:
And it’s all for me grog
Me jolly, jolly grog
It’s all for me beer and tobacco
Well I 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 gone for beer and tobacco
Well the toe is all worn out
And the heel is knocked about
And the sole is looking out for better weather

Chorus

Where is me shirt, me noggin noggin shirt
It’s all gone for beer and tobacco
Well the collar is all wore
And the sleeves they are all tore
And the tail is looking out for better weather

Chorus

Where is me bed, me noggin noggin bed
It’s all gone for beer and tobacco
Well I lent it to a whore
And the sheets they are all tore
And the springs are looking out for better weather

Chorus

Where is me wench, me noggin noggin wench
She’s all gone for beer and tobacco
Well her [CLAP] is all worn out
And her [CLAP] is knocked about
And her [CLAP] is looking out for better weather

Different Chorus:
And it’s all for me grog
Me jolly, jolly grog
It’s all for me beer and tobacco
Well I spent all me loot in a house of ill repute
And I think I’ll have to go back there tomorrow

Now I’m sick in the head
And I haven’t been to bed
Since I came ashore with me plunder
I’ve seen centipedes and snakes
And I’m full of pains and aches
And I think I’ll make a path for way out yonder
