I'll sing you a song, good song of the sea
Away Rio!
I'll sing it to you If you sing it with me
And we're bound for the Rio Grande, and it's
Away Rio! Away Rio!
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
The chain's up and down the bosun did say
Away Rio!
Heave up to the hawspipe, the anchor's away
And we're bound for the Rio Grande, and it's
Away Rio! Away Rio!
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
The Anchor is weighed and the sails they are set
Away Rio!
The girls that we're leaving we'll never forget
And we're bound for the Rio Grande, and it's
Away Rio! Away Rio!
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
Oh fare the well all ye ladies of town
Away Rio!
We've left you enough for to buy a silk gown
And we're bound for the Rio Grande, and it's
Away Rio! Away Rio!
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
Heave with a will boys and heave long and strong
Away Rio!
Sing the good chorus for 'tis a good song
And we're bound for the Rio Grande, and it's
Away Rio! Away Rio!
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
And it's goodbye to Ellen and Molly and Sue
Away Rio!
And those that are listening, it's goodbye to you
And we're bound for the Rio Grande, and it's
Away Rio! Away Rio!
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
And it's
Away Rio! Away Rio!
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
Sing fare thee well, my pretty young girls, and
We're bound for the Rio Grande
We're bound for the Rio Grande
