Lyrics
Jack Tars
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Once was a sailor
Ship of the line
Came to my duty
Serving my time
Far, far away from you I must go
Ne'er to return - I do not know
If I return to tell you my tale
I'll sing of gunsmoke and blood-stained sails
Stand by my shipmates
We will not fall
Jolly Jack Tars, brave men and all
