[Call – Lead] I heard the bosun shout my name [Response – Crew] Leave her, lads, leave her! [Lead] This rusted hull won’t sail again [Crew] And it’s time for us to leave her! [Chorus – All] Leave her, lads, leave her! Oh, leave her, lads, leave her! For the tide runs low and the wind won’t blow And it’s time for us to leave her! [Lead] The sails hang torn, the mast’s half gone [Crew] Leave her, lads, leave her! [Lead] We’ve fought this wreck for far too long [Crew] And it’s time for us to leave her! [Chorus – All] Leave her, lads, leave her! Oh, leave her, lads, leave her! For the tide runs low and the wind won’t blow And it’s time for us to leave her! [Lead] No gold below, no rum to pour [Crew] Leave her, lads, leave her! [Lead] Just broken planks and rotten boards [Crew] And it’s time for us to leave her! [Bridge – Half sung / shouted] One last pull and then we’re free Salt and scars is all we’ll be Turn our backs on creakin’ wood We gave her all… we gave her good [Final Chorus – All, loud + layered] Leave her, lads, leave her! Oh, leave her, lads, leave her! For the tide runs low and the wind won’t blow And it’s time for us to leave her!
