Round the bay of Mexico
Way up Suzyanna
Mexico's the place that I belong in
Round the bay of Mexico
Been to sea for a month or more
Way up Suzyanna
Lookin' forward to my time on shore
Round the bay of Mexico
The wind is high, the sky is blue
Way up Suzyanna
Bound to anchor in a day or two
Round the bay of Mexico
I can see it all before my eye
Way up Suzyanna
A big café and a bottle full o' rye
Round the bay of Mexico
Some beans and rice to soothe my taste
Way up Suzyanna
I ain't gonna let nothin' go to waste
Round the bay of Mexico
Put some kerchiefs in my bag
Way up Suzyanna
Tell a tale or two so I can really brag
Round the bay of Mexico
There's Rosita and Chiquita and pretty maid Bell
Way up Suzyanna
If I meet them all at once I'll never get well
Round the bay of Mexico
