Tell me now what is this good boat's name?

It's the sailboat Malarkey.

Well now, me boys, we are bound out to sea!

O when will Caroline come down to me?

In the sailboat Malarkey.

She's lovely aloft and she's lovely below.

Is the sailboat Malarkey.

But she's best on her back as you very well know!

That sailboat Malarkey.

Away, away in St George's Town,

In the sailboat Malarkey.

The rats come batting the houses down,

Of the sailboat Malarkey.

I'd give the world boys and all that I know

In the sailboat Malarkey.

To turn and to roll with my Lucy-oh!

In the sailboat Malarkey.

You pick her up, boys, and lay her down,

In the sailboat Malarkey.

And hang on tight as she bounces around!

In the sailboat Malarkey.
