The Padstow Shanty or
The Farewell Shanty
It’s time to go now
Haul away your anchor
Haul away your anchor
‘Tis our sailing time
Set some sail upon her
Haul away your halyards
Haul away your halyards
‘Tis our sailing time
Get her on her course now
Haul away your foresheets
Haul away your foresheets
‘Tis our sailing time
Waves are breaking under
Haul away down-channel
Haul away down-channel
On the evening tide
When my time is over
Haul away for Heaven
Haul away for Heaven
God be by my side
It’s time to go now
Haul away your anchor
Haul away your anchor
‘Tis our sailing time
It’s time to go now
Haul away your anchor
Haul away your anchor
‘Tis our sailing time
Get some sail upon her
Haul away your foresheets
Haul away your halyards
‘Tis our sailing time
See the waves go by her
Haul away your halyards
Haul away your halyards
‘Tis our sailing time
Feel the swells go under
Haul away down-channel
Haul away down-channel
On the evening tide
 
When your day is over
Haul away for Heaven
Haul away for Heaven
God be by your side
 
 
It’s time to go now
Haul away your anchor
Haul away your anchor
‘Tis our sailing time
