Lyrics:

Oh, the rain it rains all day long
Bold Riley-o, bold Riley
And the northern wind, it blows so strong
Bold Riley-o has gone away

Goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o, bold Riley
Goodbye my darlin', goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o has gone away

Well, come on Mary, don't look glum
Bold Riley-o, bold Riley
Come white-stocking day you'll be drinkin' rum
Bold Riley-o has gone away

Goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o, bold Riley
Goodbye my darlin', goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o has gone away


We're outward bound for the Bengal Bay
Bold Riley-o, bold Riley
Get bendin', me lads, it's a hell of a way
Bold Riley-o has gone away

Goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o, bold Riley
Goodbye my darlin', goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o has gone away
Goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o, bold Riley
Goodbye my darlin', goodbye my dear-o
Bold Riley-o has gone away
