Published in Bruce and Stokoe's Northumbrian Minstrelsy, this song adapts the tune Kingsbridge Assembly published by London music publisher Peter Thompson.


Lasses, call your lads ashore,

Lasses, call your lads ashore,

Lasses, call your lads ashore,

There's liberty for the sailors.


Liberty and money free,

Liberty and money free,

Liberty and money free,

There's liberty for the sailors.


Let the lubbers lie aboard,

Let the lubbers lie aboard,

Let the lubbers lie aboard,

Because they're nobbut tailors.


But lasses, call your lads etc
