Clear Away in the Morning
by Gordon Bok
on Peter Kagan and the Wind (1971)
Take me back on the bay, boys
Clear away in the morning
I don't want to go ashore, boys
Oh, bring her 'round
Take me back on the bay, boys
Clear away in the morning
I don't want to spend my pay, boys
Oh, bring her 'round
Captain don't you leave me
Clear away in the morning
There's no one here that needs me
Oh, bring her 'round
Nancy, oh my Nancy
Clear away in the morning
She never played it fancy
Oh, bring her 'round
Bring me wine and brandy
Clear away in the morning
I'd only ask for Nancy
Oh, bring her 'round
Captain, don't let the main down
Clear away in the morning
Oh, Captain, don't let the chain run
Oh, bring her 'round
"Captain, don't you need me?"
Clear away in the morning
"There's nothing I can do, boy"
Oh, bring her 'round
Nancy, oh my Nancy
Clear away in the morning
Nancy, oh my Nancy
Oh, bring her 'round
Take me back on the bay, boys
Clear away in the morning
I don't want to go ashore, boys
Oh, bring her 'round
