18 - Cape Cod Girls
Words by TraditionalTune by Traditional
Cape Cod girls ain’t got no combs
Haul away, haul away
They comb their hair with codfish bones
And we’re bound away for Australia
So heave away, my bully, bully boys
Haul away, haul away
Heave away, why don’t you make some noise
And we’re bound away for Australia
Cape Cod kids ain’t got no sleds
They slide down the hills on codfish heads
Cape Cod men ain’t got no ale
They fill their glasses with codfish tails
Cape Cod folk ain’t got no ills
Cape Cod doctors give 'em codfish pills
Cape Cod mothers don’t bake no pies
They feed their kids on codfish eyes
Cape Cod cats ain’t got no tails
They got blown off by the northeast gales
