Bear Away, Yankee

Trad. Additional words by Craig Edwards
(Recorded by Tom Lewis on Poles Apart)

Deep the water and shallow the shore,
Bear away, Yankee, bear away, boys,
Bear away and I'll tell you some more,
Bear away, Yankee, bear away, boys.

Chorus:
Bear away, oh bear away,
Bear away for Mobile Bay.

Deep the water and shallow the shore,
Bear away and I'll tell you some more.

Bear away, oh bear away,
Bear away for Mobile Bay.

Bear away and make y'r pay,
What you gonna tell John Gould today?
