Letra de Jericho

[Verse 1]
When she's a tight old staver
Then do all you can to save her;
When she drops her dear old transom
Time to pack your gear and leave her
[Chorus]
Ho-ro, the wind and snow
Flying o'er the Jericho
When the stormy winds do blow
Swing her off and let her go
[Verse 2]
Here's to her lodging knees
And her bobstays, if you please
Here's to her trestle trees:
May they never leave her
[Chorus]
Ho-ro, the wind and snow
Flying o'er the Jericho
When the stormy winds do blow
Swing her off and let her go
[Verse 3]
When the fog is on the punkin
And you hear the bells a-tunkin'
Then remember Mama's warnin':
Keep her off the rockpiles, darling
[Chorus]
Ho-ro, the wind and snow
Flying o'er the Jericho
When the stormy winds do blow
Swing her off and let her go
[Verse 4]
Here's to the dear old lady
Here's to her paint and putty
Here's to her chain plates, darling
May they keep her all together
[Chorus]
Ho-ro, the wind and snow
Flying o'er the Jericho
When the stormy winds do blow
Swing her off and let her go
[Verse 5]
Keep her full and keep her going
Never jibe her when it's blowing;
There's no way of knowing
When she's going to tear it, darling
[Chorus]
Ho-ro, the wind and snow
Flying o'er the Jericho
When the stormy winds do blow
Swing her off and let her go
[Verse 6]
Don't you go down to the city
Though the women all be pretty:
They'll take your money, darling
Oh, and they'll reef your mainsail
[Chorus]
Ho-ro, the wind and snow
Flying o'er the Jericho
When the stormy winds do blow
Swing her off and let her go
[Verse 7]
So here's to her garboard strakes
And to the water that she makes
When to the pumps we takes
Just to let her know we love her
