The Dreadnoughts - The Dreadnought lyrics

[The Dreadnoughts - The Dreadnought lyrics]

Oh, there is a flash packet
Flash packet of fame she hails from New York
And the Dreadnought's her name
She's bound to the west
Where the stormy winds blow
All away to the westward
In the Dreadnought we'll go
Derry down, down, down derry down

With the gale at her back
What a sight does she make
A skippin' so merry
With the west in her wake
Her sailors like lions
On the jacks to and fro
She's the Liverpool packet
Oh, Lord let her go!
Derry down, down, down derry down
Now the Dreadnought's a-sailing
The Atlantic so wide
While the high roaring seas


Move along her black sides
With her sails tight as wires
And the Black Flag to show
All away to the Dreadnought
To the westward we'll go
Derry down, down, down derry down

Here's a health to the Dreadnought
And all her brave crew to bold captain
(Willy) and his officers too
Talk about your flash packets
Swallowtail, Black Ball
The Dreadnought's the flyer
That out sails them all!
Derry down, down, down derry down
