[Intro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 1]
We're sailin' 'cross the river from Liverpool
Heave away, Santy Anno
Around Cape Horn to the 'Frisco Bay
Way out in Californio

[Chorus]
So, heave her up, and away we'll go
Heave away, Santy Anno
Heave her up, and away we'll go
Way out in Californio

[Verse 2]
There's plenty of gold, so I've been told
Heave away, Santy Anno
Plenty of gold, so I've been told
Way out in Californio

[Chorus]
So, heave her up, and away we'll go
Heave away, Santy Anno
Heave her up, and away we'll go
Way out in Californio
[Post-Chorus]
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah

[Verse 3]
Well, back in the days of '49
Heave away, Santy Anno
Back in the days of the good old times
Way out in Californio

[Chorus]
So, heave her up, and away we'll go
Heave away, Santy Anno
Heave her up, and away we'll go
Way out in Californio

[Post-Chorus]
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
