The Men of the Robert Shaw Chorale

Whup! Jamboree

Now my lads be of good cheer
For the Irish land will soon draw near
In a few more days we'll sight Cape Clear
Oh Jenny, get yer oatcake done

Whup! Jamboree, whup! jamboree
Oh ye one (?) sailor hauls upon the line
Whup! Jamboree, whup! jamboree
Oh Jenny get yer oatcake done

Now Cape Clear it is in sight
We'll be off Holyhead by tomorrow night
And we'll steer a course for old Rock Light
Oh Jenny, get yer oatcake done

Now my lads we're round the rock
All hammocks lashed and chests all locked
We'll haul her into the Waterloo Dock

Oh Jenny, get yer oatcake done

Now my lads we're all in luck
We'll be off to Dan Lowry's on the spot
And now we'll have a good round about
Oh Jenny, get yer oatcake done

Cape Clear - the southernmost inhabited part
of the island of Ireland
Holyhead - is located on Holy Island, Wales
Waterloo Dock - on the River Mercy, England,
and part of the port of Liverpool
Dan Lowry's - A popular playhouse in
Paradise Street near the Waterloo Dock

A homeward bound shanty, usually sung at capstan or windlass

Waterloo Dock is on the river Mersey (not Mercy). I`ve heard another version of the chorus, which goes: Whip jamboree, whip jamboree, with your pigtail, sailor, hanging down behind, whip jamboree ... etc.
