Intro/Polka section 1
Verse
As I walked down to New York town,
She asked me back to see her place
She lived on Barrack Street
Chorus
And away, Santy
My dear Annie
Oh, you New York girls, can't you dance the polka?
Polka Section 2
Verse 2
And when we got to Barrack Street,
we stopped at forty-four
Her mother and her sister
were waiting at the door
Chorus
And away, Santy
My dear Annie
Oh, you New York girls, can't you dance the polka?
Polka Section 2
Verse 3
And when I got inside the house,
the drinks were passed around
The liquor was so awful strong,
my head went round and round
And then we had another drink
before we sat to eat
The liquor was so awful strong,
I quickly fell asleep
Chorus
And away, Santy
My dear Annie
Oh, you New York girls, can't you dance the polka?
Verse 4
When I awoke next morning,
I had an aching head
And there was I Jack all alone,
stark naked in me bed
My gold watch and my money
and my lady friend were gone
And there was I Jack all alone,
stark naked in the room
Chorus
And away, Santy
My dear Annie
Oh, you New York girls, can't you dance the polka?
Polka section 2
Verse 5
Oh looking round that little room,
there's nothing I could see
But a woman's shift and apron
that were no use to me
With a barrel for a suit of clothes,
down Cherry Street forlorn
Where Martin Churchill took me in
and he sent me round Cape Horn
So sailor lads, take warning when you land on New York shore
You'll have to get up early to be smarter than a whore
Chorus
And away, Santy
My dear Annie
Oh, you New York girls, can't you dance the polka?
And away, Santy
My dear Annie
Oh, you New York girls, can't you dance the polka?
Polka section 2
