[Verse 1]
I thought I heard the old man say
Leave her Johnny, leave her
Tomorrow ye will get your pay
And it's time for us to leave her

[Chorus]
Leave her Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her Johnny, leave her
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her

[Verse 2]
Oh the wind was foul and the sea ran high
Leave her Johnny, leave her
Shе shipped it green and none went by
And it's timе for us to leave her

[Chorus]
Leave her Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her Johnny, leave her
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her

[Verse 3]
I hate to sail in this rotten tub
Leave her Johnny, leave her
No grog allowed, and rotten grub
And it's time for us to leave her

[Chorus]
Leave her Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her Johnny, leave her
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her

[Verse 4]
We swear by rote for want of more
Leave her Johnny, leave her
But now we're through, so we'll go on shore
And it's time for us to leave her

[Chorus]
Leave her Johnny, leave her
Oh, leave her Johnny, leave her
For the voyage is long and the winds don't blow
And it's time for us to leave her
