Blood Red Roses

[Verse 1]
Me bonnie bunch o’roses O!
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
It’s time for us to roll ‘n’ go!
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
Ooh! You pinks ‘n’ posies
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!

[Verse 2]
We’re bound away around Cape Horn
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
We wisht ter hell you’d never been born
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
Ooh! You pinks ‘n’ posies
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!

[Verse 3]
Me boots an’ clothes are all in a pawn
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
An’ it’s bleedin’ draughty around Cape Horn
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
Ooh! You pinks ‘n’ posies
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!

[Verse 4]
Ti’s growl ye may but go ye must

If ye growl too hard yer head they’ll bust
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
Ooh! You pinks ‘n’ posies
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!

[Verse 5]
Them Spanish gals are pullin’ strong
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
Hang down, me boys, it won’t take long
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
Ooh! You pinks ‘n’ posies
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!

[Verse 6]
Just one more pull an’ that’ll do
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
We’re the bullies for ter kick ’er through
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
Ooh! You pinks ‘n’ posies
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!

[Outro]
Ooh! You pinks ‘n’ posies
Come down, ye blood-red roses, come down!
