A     A              A          A
Sally Brown, she's a nice young lady
A   D       E        A
Way hay, we roll an' go
       A        D            A        A
And we roll all night and we roll all day
A         A           E     A     A A
Spend our money along Sally Brown

[Verse 2]
  A          A          A         A
I shipped on board of a Liverpool liner
A   D       E        A
Way hay, we roll an' go
       A        D            A        A
And we roll all night and we roll all day
A         A           E     A     A A
Spend our money along Sally Brown

  A              A      A     A
A mother doesn't like a tarry sailor
A   D       E        A
Way hay, we roll an' go
       A        D            A        A
And we roll all night and we roll all day
A         A           E     A     A A
Spend our money along Sally Brown

[Verse 4]
    A            A       A          A
She wants her to marry a one-legged captain
A   D       E        A
Way hay, we roll an' go
       A        D            A        A
And we roll all night and we roll all day
A         A           E     A     A

A     A              A        A
Sally Brown, she's a bright mulatto
A   D       E        A
Way hay, we roll an' go
    A            A           A       A
She drinks stock rum and she chews tobacco
A   D       E        A
Way hay, we roll an' go
       A        D            A        A
And we roll all night and we roll all day
A         A           E     A
Spend our money along Sally Brown

Spend our money along Sally Brown
