lyrics

A big haul day in Armstrong Bay
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
I want a drink, I need a drink!
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
The hull is full from Warrnambool
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
O, where's my pipe? I need my pipe!
(100 Steps to the Merrijig Inn)

So pace 'em out boys, pace 'em out
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
And leave me just one bottle of stout
(100 Steps to the Merrijig Inn)

Me quota's caught, we must report
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
I want my lass, I need my lass
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
The whales are here, so grab the gear
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
I want want the bones, I need the bones
(100 Steps to the Merrijig Inn)

So pace 'em out boys, pace 'em out
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
And leave me just one bottle of stout
(100 Steps to the Merrijig Inn)

Hold me up, boys, I've had too much!
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
I will not die, no not tonight!
(100 Steps to the Merrijig Inn)
We sing to our Danny Boy
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
We sing it loud and we sing it proud!
(100 Steps to the Merrijig Inn)

So pace 'em out boys, pace 'em out
(100 Steps, 100 Steps)
And leave me just one bottle of stout
(100 Steps to the Merrijig Inn)
