Wop Jamboree, wop jamboree<br>
Oh a long-tailed sailor man comin' up behind<br>
Wop Jamboree, wop jamboree<br>
Come an' get your oats me son<br>
The pilot he looked out ahead<br>
The hands on the cane and the heavin' of the lead<br>
And the old man roared to wake the dead<br>
Come and get your oats me son<br>
Oh, now we see the lizzard light<br>
Soon, me boys, we'll heave in sight<br>
We'll soon be abreast of the Isle of Wight<br>
Come and get your oats me son<br>
Now when we get to the black wall dock<br>
Those pretty young girls come out in flocks<br>
With short-legged drawers and long-tailed frocks<br>
Come and get your oats me son<br>
Well, when we get to Lanaus Lane<br>
On all the girls will spend our pay<br>
We'll not sign on 'til another day<br>
Come and get your oats me son<br>
