In this version, a flying-fish sailor, just home from Hong Kong, is mistaken by a police-man for a sailor off a Black Baller ship. Insulted, the sailor man strikes the police-man's jaw, and subsequently goes to jail.
Lyrics -
I'm a flying fish sailor just home from Hong Kong
To me wey-hey, blow the man down
If you give me some whiskey, I'll sing you a song
Gimme some time to blow the man down
As I was a-rolling down Paradise Street
A handsome fat police-man I chanced for to meet
He says "You're a Black Baller by the cut of your hair;
And them long red-topped sea boots that I see you wear.
You've come from some packet that flies the Black Ball
You've robbed some poor Dutchman of his boots, clothes and all."
Says I to the police-man, "You do me much wrong,
I'm a flying fish sailor just home from Hong Kong!"
So I spat in his face and I stove in his jaw.
Says he, "My young sailor, you're breaking the law"
So they gave me six months, boys, in old Walton town
For booting and kicking and blowing him down.
So all you young sailors, before we belay
Stay clear of fat police-men: you'll find it'll pay
And it's blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me wey-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back into Liverpool town.
Gimme some time to blow the man down.

Haul Boys Haul
Now when I was a schoolboy I lived at home at ease
Now I am a trawlin´ man, I sail the wintry seas
I thought I´d like seafarin´ life, it´s all right ´til I found
It´s a damned sight worse than slavery when we got off the ground
And it was
Haul, boys haul. Haul, boys haul
Heave away the capstan, lads, and let´s get up the trawl
When the winds a´ blowin´, the ship´s a gently rollin´
My Emma, my Emma, won´t you be true to me
Now every night in winter, as regular as a clock
It´s on we all sail Wester, likewise your oilskin frock
An then up to the capstan lads and then we´ll heave away
Well that´s the cry in the middle of the night as well as in the day
Chorus
No when the fish are up on deck, a pilin´ to our knees
We slip and slide and wonder why we ever went to sea
But then ashore we sell the catch. That´s easier to bear
For it´s beer all night in the ladies arms when we get paid our share
Chorus
With winter passin´ over and springtime comin´ on
We go out in all weathers, no time for beer or song
For the fish don´t wait for lovers, as you might quickly find
Put on your oilskin jacket lad and leave the girls behind
Chorus
And when out trip is over, hard up the tiller goes
And straight way into Yardmouth with a big jib on her nose
And when we reach the pierhead, all the girls will loudly say
Here comes our jolly trawlin´ lads that have been so long away
And it was
Haul, boys haul. Haul, boys haul
Heave away the capstan, lads, and let´s get up the trawl
When the winds a´ blowin´, the ship´s a gently rollin´
My Emma, my Emma, won´t you be true to me
My Emma, my Emma, won´t you be true to me

Johnny Collins
Johnny Collins (10 May 1938 – 6 July 2009) was an English folk singer based in London, England, specializing in traditional maritime music.
Biography
Collins was born in Norfolk, England and adopted by a railway worker and a music teacher living in Norwich. He joined the British Army in 1956, where he learned to play the guitar in jazz and folk clubs while posted in London. He was posted to Singapore in 1959 where he began performing in bars and cabarets in his off hours, and was posted to Hong Kong in 1965 where he began performing large concerts with other folk performers in the British and U.S. military.
He also performed on television and radio (including the "Voice of America in East Asia") and played venues like the Hong Kong Hilton. In 1967 he was posted again to Singapore where he began his own folk club at the Anophel Inn. Tom Lewis and Pam Ayres performed there, among others. He was demobilized ("demobbed") in 1968, and he began to perform full-time.
In 1983 he and Jim Mageean, performing as a duo, won the Intervision Song Contest in Rostock, in East Germany. Later, in 1987, they were invited by the East German government to perform at a sea shanty festival in Berlin commemorating the city's founding.

In this version, a flying-fish sailor, just home from Hong Kong, is mistaken by a police-man for a sailor off a Black Baller ship. Insulted, the sailor man strikes the police-man's jaw, and subsequently goes to jail.
Lyrics -
I'm a flying fish sailor just home from Hong Kong
To me wey-hey, blow the man down
If you give me some whiskey, I'll sing you a song
Gimme some time to blow the man down
As I was a-rolling down Paradise Street
A handsome fat police-man I chanced for to meet
He says "You're a Black Baller by the cut of your hair;
And them long red-topped sea boots that I see you wear.
You've come from some packet that flies the Black Ball
You've robbed some poor Dutchman of his boots, clothes and all."
Says I to the police-man, "You do me much wrong,
I'm a flying fish sailor just home from Hong Kong!"
So I spat in his face and I stove in his jaw.
Says he, "My young sailor, you're breaking the law"
So they gave me six months, boys, in old Walton town
For booting and kicking and blowing him down.
So all you young sailors, before we belay
Stay clear of fat police-men: you'll find it'll pay
And it's blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me wey-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back into Liverpool town.
Gimme some time to blow the man down.

So I spat in his face and I stove in his jaw.
Says he, "My young sailor, you're breaking the law"
So they gave me six months, boys, in old Walton town
For booting and kicking and blowing him down.
So all you young sailors, before we belay
Stay clear of fat police-men: you'll find it'll pay
And it's blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me wey-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back into Liverpool town.
Gimme some time to blow the man down.

Haul Boys Haul
Now when I was a schoolboy I lived at home at ease
Now I am a trawlin´ man, I sail the wintry seas
I thought I´d like seafarin´ life, it´s all right ´til I found
It´s a damned sight worse than slavery when we got off the ground
And it was
Haul, boys haul. Haul, boys haul
Heave away the capstan, lads, and let´s get up the trawl
When the winds a´ blowin´, the ship´s a gently rollin´
My Emma, my Emma, won´t you be true to me
Now every night in winter, as regular as a clock
It´s on we all sail Wester, likewise your oilskin frock
An then up to the capstan lads and then we´ll heave away
Well that´s the cry in the middle of the night as well as in the day
Chorus
No when the fish are up on deck, a pilin´ to our knees
We slip and slide and wonder why we ever went to sea
But then ashore we sell the catch. That´s easier to bear
For it´s beer all night in the ladies arms when we get paid our share
Chorus
With winter passin´ over and springtime comin´ on
We go out in all weathers, no time for beer or song
For the fish don´t wait for lovers, as you might quickly find
Put on your oilskin jacket lad and leave the girls behind
Chorus
And when out trip is over, hard up the tiller goes
And straight way into Yardmouth with a big jib on her nose
And when we reach the pierhead, all the girls will loudly say
Here comes our jolly trawlin´ lads that have been so long away
And it was
Haul, boys haul. Haul, boys haul
Heave away the capstan, lads, and let´s get up the trawl
When the winds a´ blowin´, the ship´s a gently rollin´
My Emma, my Emma, won´t you be true to me
My Emma, my Emma, won´t you be true to me

In this version, a flying-fish sailor, just home from Hong Kong, is mistaken by a police-man for a sailor off a Black Baller ship. Insulted, the sailor man strikes the police-man's jaw, and subsequently goes to jail.
Lyrics -
I'm a flying fish sailor just home from Hong Kong
To me wey-hey, blow the man down
If you give me some whiskey, I'll sing you a song
Gimme some time to blow the man down
As I was a-rolling down Paradise Street
A handsome fat police-man I chanced for to meet
He says "You're a Black Baller by the cut of your hair;
And them long red-topped sea boots that I see you wear.
You've come from some packet that flies the Black Ball
You've robbed some poor Dutchman of his boots, clothes and all."
Says I to the police-man, "You do me much wrong,
I'm a flying fish sailor just home from Hong Kong!"
So I spat in his face and I stove in his jaw.
Says he, "My young sailor, you're breaking the law"
So they gave me six months, boys, in old Walton town
For booting and kicking and blowing him down.
So all you young sailors, before we belay
Stay clear of fat police-men: you'll find it'll pay
And it's blow the man down, bullies, blow the man down
To me wey-hey, blow the man down
Blow him right back into Liverpool town.
Gimme some time to blow the man down.

Johnny Collins
Johnny Collins (10 May 1938 – 6 July 2009) was an English folk singer based in London, England, specializing in traditional maritime music.
Biography
Collins was born in Norfolk, England and adopted by a railway worker and a music teacher living in Norwich. He joined the British Army in 1956, where he learned to play the guitar in jazz and folk clubs while posted in London. He was posted to Singapore in 1959 where he began performing in bars and cabarets in his off hours, and was posted to Hong Kong in 1965 where he began performing large concerts with other folk performers in the British and U.S. military.
He also performed on television and radio (including the "Voice of America in East Asia") and played venues like the Hong Kong Hilton. In 1967 he was posted again to Singapore where he began his own folk club at the Anophel Inn. Tom Lewis and Pam Ayres performed there, among others. He was demobilized ("demobbed") in 1968, and he began to perform full-time.
In 1983 he and Jim Mageean, performing as a duo, won the Intervision Song Contest in Rostock, in East Germany. Later, in 1987, they were invited by the East German government to perform at a sea shanty festival in Berlin commemorating the city's founding.
