For the sake of you me lassie
I’m bound away me lassie
For the sake of you me lassie
I’m bound away
Far across away the sea me lassie
Far across away the sea me lassie
Bound to sail the seas to China
Bound aboard an ocean liner
Bound to sail the rolling ocean
Bound away without commotion
So dry your tears and have no more sorrow
For the packet sails tomorrow
For the sake of you me lassie
For the sake of you me lassie
