lyrics

Didn't mind the water
Didn't mind to row
Didn't mind that we had no home

We couldn't find the mainland
After the storm
We couldn't find poor Haul Away Joe

But up on that hill
Ol' Sunny can't you tell?
It was not rain
And it was not hail
It was Haul Away... Joe
Hey Haul Away...

Then I heard the water
Bubble and smoke
Ol' Sunny's last eye never lost hope

Ghepetto the hurricane
Left us one small boat
And over the rocks we rowed and rowed

But upon that hill
Ol' Sunny can't you tell?
It was not rain
And it was not hail
It was Haul Away... Joe
Hey Haul Away....

choir: HEY HAUL AWAY HAUL AWAY JOE

Way out on the waves
Neath the horrors of the sea
Ole Joe he stowed away
And saw the world plenty

choir: HEY HAUL AWAY HAUL AWAY JOE

On Homer's ancient sea
Joe stowed away to Greece
And down in New Orleans
Joe wed a blue eyed gypsy

choir: HEY HAUL AWAY HAUL AWAY JOE
