Gilbert And Sullivan – The Walloping Window Blind lyrics

A capital ship for an ocean trip was the walloping window blind.
No wind that blew dismayed the crew, or troubled the captain's mind.
The man at the wheel was made to feel
Content in the wildest blow,
Though it oft appeared when the gale had cleared
that he'd been in his bunk below.

So, blow ye winds heigh ho, a roving I will go,
I'll stay no more on England's shore
So let the music play.
I'm off on the morning train, to cross the raging main,
I'm off to my love with a boxing glove,
ten thousand miles away.
