The rain it rains all day long,

Bold Riley oh Bold Riley

And the Northern wind it blows so strong,

Bold Riley oh has gone away.

CHORUS

Goodbye my sweet heart, goodbye my dear- oh

Bold Riley oh Bold Riley

Goodbye my darling, goodbye my dear- oh

Bold Riley oh has gone away.

Wake up Mary and don't look glum,

Bold Riley oh Bold Riley

Come white stoking day you'll be drinking rum,

Bold Riley oh has gone away.

CHORUS

We're outward bound for the Bengal Bay

Bold Riley oh Bold Riley.

Get bending lads it a hell of a way,

Bold Riley oh has gone away

CHORUS
