California Lyrics

Heave her up and away we go
Way up to California

Sailing high tide from Durban Town
Heave away Santa Anno
Around Cape Horn to the Fresco Bay
And home to California
She's a fine cutty ship with a b***** good crew
Heave away Santa Anno
A god d*** yankee for her captain too
Lead us on to California

So heave her up and away we go
Heave away Santa Anno
Heave her up and away we go
Way up to California

Diamonds and gold her cargo grand
Heave away Santa Anno
Keep them safe from pirates hands
Til we reach old California
Black flag sighted she's starboard bound
Heave away Santa Anno
Load them cannons fire first round
Pray God we reach California

So heave her up and away we go
Heave away Santa Anno
Heave her up and away we go
Way up to California
Heave her up and away we go
Way up to California

Captain Blood and his pirate crew
Heave away Santa Anno
Made old Santy meet her Waterloo
Way up to California
No surrender his last command
Heave away Santa Anno
Left Santa's crew dying on the sands
Long way from California
So heave her up and away we go
Heave away Santa Anno
Heave her up and away we go
Way up to California

So heave her up and away we go
Heave away Santa Anno
Heave her up and away we go
Way up to California

Heave her up and away we go
Way up to California
