[Verse 1]
We were drinking down to Reedy's house
When first we heard the blow
It seemed to come from Ripper Rock
So boldly forth to go
And sure enough the rusty tub
Could just be barely seen
As her stern was high up in the air
We made out Athens Queen
[Refrain]
O, the lovely Athens Queen
[Verse 2]
Me boys I must remind you
There's a bottle left inside
So let us go and have a few
And wait until low tide
And if the sea's not claimed her
When the glasses are licked clean
We will then set forth some dories lads
And see what may be seen
[Refrain]
On the lovely Athens Queen
We were drinking down to Reedy's house
When first we heard the blow
It seemed to come from Ripper Rock
So boldly forth to go
And sure enough the rusty tub
Could just be barely seen
As her stern was high up in the air

[Refrain]
O, the lovely Athens Queen
[Verse 2]

And wait until low tide
And if the sea's not claimed her
When the glasses are licked clean
We will then set forth some dories lads
And see what may be seen
[Refrain]
On the lovely Athens Queen
