Bold Riley - Kate Rusby

Oh the rain it rains all day long,

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley,

And the northern wind, it blows so strong,

Bold Riley-o has gone away.

Goodbye my sweetheart,

goodbye my dear-o

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley,

Goodbye my darlin',

goodbye my dear-o,

Bold Riley-o has gone away.

Well come on, Mary, don’t look glum,

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley,

Come White-stocking Day you’ll be drinkin' rum

Bold Riley-o has gone away.

CHORUS

We’re outward bound for the Bengal Bay,

Bold Riley-o, Bold Riley,

Get bending, me lads,

it’s a hell-of-a-way,

Bold Riley-o has gone away.
