Lyrics:

Was you ever in Quebec?
Bonny laddie, Highland laddie,
Loading timber on the deck,
My bonny Highland laddie.
Chorus
High-ho, and away she goes,
Bonny laddie, Highland laddie,
High-ho, and away she goes,
My bonny Highland laddie.
Was you ever in Callao
Where the girls are never slow?
Was you ever in Baltimore
Dancing on the sanded floor?
Was you ever in Mobile Bay,
Screwing cotton by the day?
Was you ever in Miramashee?
Where you tie up to a tree.
Was you ever in New Bedford port?
With the girls did you cavort?
Was you on the Brummalow,
Where Yankee boys are all the go?
Was you ever round Cape Horn?
Where you wish to God you’d never been born?
