The Mermaid Song (PRF Version)It was Friday morn when we set sail And we were not so far from the land When the captain, he spied a pretty mermaid With a comb and a glass in her hand Chorus: And the ocean waves do roll [Oh they roll] And the stormy winds do blow [Oh they blow] And we fine Rogues go skipping on the tops While the landlubbers lie down below, below, below While the landlubbers lie down below. And up spoke the captain of our gallant ship And a fine-spoken captain was he It's the she mermaid, she has shown us to our doom We will sink to the bottom of the sea. (chorus) Then up spoke the mate of our gallant ship And a fine, sulking, sailor man was he He said, "I've got a wife back in London by the sea, And tonight she'll be crying for me!" (chorus) And up spoke the gunner of our gallant ship And a rough, tough, fightin' man was he He said, "I care much more for me cannon and me balls, Than I care for the bottom of the sea!" (chorus) And then up spoke the cook of our gallant ship And a crazy old cookie was he "Well, I care much more for me pots and for me pans Than I do for the bottom of the sea!" (chorus) Then three times 'round spun our gallant ship And three times 'round spun she. I said three times 'round spun our gallant ship And she sank to the bottom of the sea. (chorus sung "under water") (chorus) |
