Oh! The smartest packet ye can find,
Ah Hey! Ah Ho! Are you most done?
Is the Ol’ Wildcat of the Swallow-tail Line!
Clear a-way the track and let the Bulgine run!
With a Hey, Rig-a-jig, in a jaunting run!
Ah Hey! Ah Ho! Are you most done?
With Eliza Lee upon on my knee,
Clear away the track and let the Bulgine run!
Now the old Wild-cat of the Swallowtail Line,
Ah Hey! Ah Ho! Are you most done?
She’s never a day behind her time!
Clear away the track and let the Bulgine run!
We’re out-ward bound for New York Town,
Ah Hey! Ah Ho! Are you most done?
Them bow-er-y girls we’ll dance them round.
Clear away the track and let the Bulgine run!
And when we dock at the south street pier,
Ah Hey! Ah Ho! Are you most done?
We’ll go ashore and have some beer
Clear away the track and let the Bulgine run!
When we gets back to Liverpool town,
Ah Hey! Ah Ho! Are you most done?
I’ll stand you whiskies all around.
Clear away the track an’ let the Bulgine run!
When I get home across the sea,
Ah Hey! Ah Ho! Are you most done?
Eliza, will you marry me?
Clear away the track an’ let the bulgine run
