- (continued from previous page)Three times round goes the gally gally ship
And three times round goes she
And the very last time
That she went around she sank to bottom of the sea
Pull her up, Pull her up
Cried the old sailor boy
Yes I will, yes I will cried he
At the words to the bottom of the sea they all sit down
while sitting down they sing
"Pull her up, pull her up
cried the old sailor boy
Yes I will yes I will cried he
At the word "he" they all stand up and the very last one up has to tell the name.
of a boy to some other in the circle then they both come in to the circle and the whole ring sings
Heigh he ho. I wouldn't have liked to tell his mama and then she tells the name. Then they sing the same again and she tells his second name.- Collector
