Lyrics

East India Lanes

All hands holding tight to the wheel

All hands reaching fore

All hands holding tight to the wheel

Bring her round, filling tight with the wind

Coming down, back on the East India lane

We're there, fifteen girls to a man

We're there, fifteen boys

We're there, fifteen girls to a man

Bring her 'round, filling tight with the wind

Coming down, back on the East India lane

Cape Horn, devil's blowing a gale

All aboard to pull us down

Cape Horn will wreck and tatter the sails

Bring her 'round, filling tight with the wind

Coming down, back on the East India lane

Haul boys the sultan promises all

More gold than we can store

Haul boys let your bilge sheets fall

Bring her 'round, filling tight with the wind

Coming down, back on the East India lane

Bring her 'round, filling tight with the wind

Coming down, back on the East India lane
