[00:08.50]Oh times were hard and the wages low
[00:12.13]Leave her Johnny leave her
[00:14.61]I guess it's time for us to go
[00:18.28]It's time for us to leave her
[00:21.11]Beware these packet ships I say
[00:24.78]Leave her Johnny leave her
[00:27.16]They'll steal your stores and your clothes away
[00:30.69]It's time for us to leave her
[00:33.18]There's Liverpool Pat with his tarpaulin hat
[00:37.05]Leave her Johnny leave her
[00:39.40]And Yankee John the pocket rat
[00:42.76]It's time for us to leave her
[00:45.25]She would not wear and she would not stay
[00:49.25]Leave her Johnny leave her
[00:51.53]She shipped great seas both night and day
[00:55.13]It's time for us to leave her
[00:57.55]Its rotten beef and waverly bread
[01:01.33]Leave her Johnny leave her
[01:03.63]It was pump or drown the old man said
[01:07.03]It's time for us to leave her
[01:09.68]The sails all furled our work is done
[01:13.22]Leave her Johnny leave her
[01:15.50]And now ashore we'll take our run
[01:18.92]It's time for us to leave her
[01:21.45]Oh what will us poor shellbacks do
[01:25.10]Leave her Johnny leave her
[01:27.25]Our money's gone more work to do
[01:30.77]It's time for us to leave her
[01:33.95]Leave Her Johnny - Dave Van Ronk
