The Fish Of The Sea Come all you young sailormen, listen to me I'll sing you a song of the fish in the sea, and it's... Chorus Windy weather boys, stormy weather, boys When the wind blows we're all together, boys Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds, blow Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes. Up jumps the eel with his slippery tail, Climbs up aloft and reefs the topsail, and it's... Chorus Then up jumps the shark with his nine rows of teeth Saying, 'You eat the dough boys, and I'll eat the beef!' and it's... Chorus Up jumps the lobster with his heavy claws, Bites the main boom right off by the jaws! and it's... Chorus Up jumps the halibut, lies flat on the deck He says, 'Mister Captain, don't step on my neck!' and it's... Chorus Up jumps the herring, the king of the sea, Saying, 'All other fishes, now you follow me!' and it's... Chorus Up jumps the codfish with his chuckle-head, He runs out up forward and throws out the lead! and it's... Chorus Up jumps the whale... the largest of all, 'If you want any wind, well, I'll blow ye a squall!' and it's... Chorus (twice) Midi from www.contemplator.com Sequenced by ~Barry Taylor |
