guitar chords lyrics
I heard, I heard, the Old Man say,
John Kanaka-naka tu-lai-e! (too-lie-ay)
Today, today is a holiday!
John Kanaka-naka tu-lai-e!
Tu-lai-e!, oh, tu-lai-e!
John Kanaka-naka tu-lai-e!
We'll work tomorrow, but no work today,
John Kanaka-naka, tulai-e!
Today, today is a holiday,
John Kanaka-naka, tulai-e!
Tulai-e, oh! tulai-e!
John Kanaka-naka, tulai-e!
We're bound away for Frisco Bay,
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
We're bound away at the break of day.
We're bound away for Frisco Bay,
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
We're bound away at the break of day.
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
Tulai-e, oh! tulai-e!
John Kanaka-naka, tulai-e!
A Yankee ship with a Yankee crew,
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
Oh we're buckos for to push her through.
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
Tulai-e, oh! tulai-e!
John Kanaka-naka, tulai-e!
A Yankee ship with a Yankee mate,
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
He's the bugger who can change your gait!
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
Tulai-e, oh! tulai-e!
John Kanaka-naka, tulai-e!
Oh, haul away, oh, haul away!
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
Oh, haul away, an' make your pay!
John Kanaka-naka tulai-e!
Tulai-e, oh! tulai-e!
John Kanaka-naka, tulai-e!
