Oat-cakes done
Whip jamboree
Whip jamboree
Oh you pig-tail
Sailor hanging down behind
Whip Jamboree
Whip Jamboree
Oh Jenny get your oatcakes done
And now cape clear it is in sight
We'll be off holyhead by tomorrow night
We'll set a course for the old rock light
Oh Jenny get your oat-cakes done
Whip jamboree
Whip jamboree
Oh you pig-tail
Sailor hanging down behind
Whip Jamboree
Whip Jamboree
Oh Jenny get your oatcakes done
And now we likes we're holyhead
No more salt-beef or weevilly bread
One man in the chains for to swing the lead
Oh Jenny get your oat-cakes done
Whip jamboree
Whip jamboree
Oh you pig-tail
Sailor hanging down behind
Whip Jamboree
Whip Jamboree
Oh Jenny get your oatcakes done
Oatcakes done
And now we're passing fort perch rock
All hammocks lashed and well chests locked
We'll haul her in to the waterloo dock
Oh Jenny get your oat-cakes done
Whip jamboree
Whip jamboree
Oh you pig-tail
Sailor hanging down behind
Whip Jamboree
Whip Jamboree
Oh Jenny get your oatcakes done
And now my lads we are all in dock
We'll be off to Dan Lowry's on the spot
And then we'll sink a big pint pot
Oh Jenny get your oat-cakes done
Whip jamboree
Whip jamboree
Oh you pig-tail
Sailor hanging down behind
Whip Jamboree
Whip Jamboree
Oh Jenny get your oatcakes done
One more time
Whip jamboree
Whip jamboree
Oh you pig-tail
Sailor hanging down behind
Whip Jamboree
Whip Jamboree
Oh Jenny get your oatcakes done
