o the rain it rains all the day long
bold Riley-o bold Riley
and the northern wind it blows so strong
bold Riley-o's gone away
	
goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear-o
bold Riley-o bold Riley
goodbye my darling, goodbye my dear-o
bold Riley-o's gone away
	
our anchor's weighed and our rags are well set
and those Liverpool girls we'll never forget
we're outward bound for the Bengal Bay
get bending my lads it's a hell of a way

goodbye my sweetheart, goodbye my dear-o
bold Riley-o bold Riley
goodbye my darling, goodbye my dear-o
bold Riley-o's gone away
