Hey ho, below below
Stowing sugar in the hold below
Hey ho, below below

Wish I was in Mobile Bay
Screwing cotton all the day
But I'm stowing sugar in the hold below

The JM white is a brand new boat
Stern to stern she's mighty fine
Beat any boat on the New Orleans line
Stowing sugar in the hold below

Hey ho, below below
Stowing sugar in the hold below
Hey ho, below below
Stowing sugar in the hold below

Engineer shouts through his horn
Tell the mate we got bad news
Can't get the steam from the fire in the flue
Stowing sugar in the hold below

Hey ho, below below
Stowing sugar in the hold below
Hey ho, below below
Stowing sugar in the hold below

Captain stands on the quarter deck
Scratching 'way at his old neck
He shouts out: Heave out the larboard lead
Stowing sugar in the hold below

Hey ho, below below

Hey ho, below below
Stowing sugar in the hold below
Hey ho, below below
Stowing sugar in the hold below
Hey ho, below below
