Sacramento - The Dreadnoughts

O, around Cape Horn we are bound to go

To me roo-dah, roo-dah

Around Cape Horn through the sleet and snow

To me roo-dah, roo-dah, day

Blow, boys, blow

For Californ-I-O

There’s plenty of gold so I’ve been told

On the banks of the Sacramento

Oh, around Cape Horn in the month of May

To me roo-dah, roo-dah

Oh, around Cape Horn is a very long way

To me roo-dah, roo-dah, day

Blow, boys, blow

For Californ-I-O

There’s plenty of gold so I’ve been told

On the banks of the Sacramento

Them Spanish girls ain’t got no combs

To me roo-dah, roo-dah

They comb their locks with tunny-fish bones

To me roo-dah, roo-dah, day

Blow, boys, blow

For Californ-I-O

There’s plenty of gold so I’ve been told

On the banks of the Sacramento

We’re the bullies for to kick her through

To me roo-dah, roo-dah

Roll down the hill with a hullabaloo

To me roo-dah, roo-dah, day

Blow, boys, blow

For Californ-I-O

There’s plenty of gold so I’ve been told

On the banks of the Sacramento

We’ll crack it on, on a big skiyoot

To me roo-dah, roo-dah

And ol' Bully Jim is a bloody big brute

To me roo-dah, roo-dah, day

Blow, boys, blow

For Californ-I-O

There’s plenty of gold so I’ve been told

On the banks of the Sacramento

When we gets up to 'Frisco town

To me roo-dah, roo-dah

I’ll stand you’s whiskey’s all around

To me roo-dah, roo-dah, day

Blow, boys, blow

For Californ-I-O

There’s plenty of gold so I’ve been told

On the banks of the Sacramento

Blow, boys, blow

For Californ-I-O

There’s plenty of gold so I’ve been told

On the banks of the Sacramento
