Yet some people tried
To bore holes in her side
But alas! The attempt was vain
For the dark powers of hell
Should be stuck in the shell
That would founder the Mary Jane.6.What a terrible loss
If Conscription should pass
And we'd have to desert our boat!
But our Captain and crew
Are all loyal and true
They're bound to keep her afloat
We'll fly our green flag
Be it no foreign rag
'Twill be marked with the words Sinn Féin
We'll sail out and defeat
Any invading fleet
In our sweet little "Mary Jane"
