Where Am I to Go?

Where am I to go, me Johnnies,
Where am I to go?
   Gimme way, hey, hey,
   Hey, the roll and go.
Where am I to go, me Johnnies,
Where am I to go?
   l'm a young and sailor lad,
   And where am I to go?

Way out on tbat tops'l yard,
That's where you're bound to go....
Way out on that tops'l yard
And take that tops'l in.

Way out on that royal yard,
That's where you're bound to go....
Way out on that royal yard
That royal for to stow.
You're bound away around Cape Horn
That's where you're bound to go...
You're bound away around Cape Horn
All in the ice and snow.
