 * || Som shanty er det en som leder forsangen og koret stemmer inn i refrenget.

I thought I heard the Old Man say, John Kanaka-naka tulai-e [too-lie-ay] Today, today is a holiday! John Kanaka-nakatulai-e (Chorus) Tulai-e, oh tulai-e John Kanaka-nakatulai-e

I thought I heard the boatswain say,  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e  There’s work tomorrow but no work today.  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e (Chorus)

 The boatswain says “Before I’m through  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e  You’ll curse your mother for having you”  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e (Chorus)

 There’s rotten meat and weevily bread  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e  Just like the Gate the Old Man said  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e (Chorus)

 She would not steer and she would not stay  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e  She shipped the water both night and day  John Kanaka-naka tulai-e (Chorus)

We’re all Liverpool born and bred John Kanaka-naka tulai-e Strong in the arm but thick in the head John Kanaka-naka tulai-e (//Chorus//)

Growl ye may but go you must (//Chorus//) If you growl too loud your head they’ll bust John Kanaka-naka tulai-e Around Cape Horn our ship must go John Kanaka-naka tulai-e Around Cape Horn through the ice and snow (//Chorus//)

My dear old mum she wrote to me John Kanaka-naka tulai-e Oh son, my son come home from sea John Kanaka-naka tulai-e (//Chorus//)

It’s one more pull and that will do, John Kanaka-naka tulai-e And we’re the bullies to pull her through John Kanaka-naka tulai-e (//Chorus//) ||  || John Kanakanaka, too-ri-ay! Tomorrow is our sailin' day, John Kanakanaka, too-ri-ay! Too-ri-ay, too-ri-ay, John Kanakanaka, too-ri-ay!
