and it's all for me grog
me jolly jolly grog
all for me beer and tobacco
for i spent all me tin
on the lassies drinkin' gin
far across the western ocean i must wander

and where is me shirt,
me noggin noggin shirt?
it's all gone for beer and tobacco
for the collar it is gone
and the sleeves are ripped and torn
and the tail is lookin' out for better weather

and it's all for me grog
me jolly jolly grog
all for me beer and tobacco
for i spent all me tin
on the lassies drinkin' gin
far across the western ocean i must wander

and where are me boots
me noggin noggin boots?
they¹re all gone for beer and tobacco
for the soles they are worn out
and the heels are kicked about
and the tongue is lookin' out for better weather

and it's all for me grog
me jolly jolly grog
all for me beer and tobacco
for i spent all me tin
on the lassies drinkin' gin
far across the western ocean i must wander

there's a pain in me head
and i haven't been to bed
since first i come ashore with me plunder
i've seen centipedes and snakes
and i'm filled with pains and aches
far across the western ocean i must wander

and it's all for me grog
me jolly jolly grog
all for me beer and tobacco
for i spent all me tin
on the lassies drinkin' gin
far across the western ocean i must wander.
