Hello?
Is anyone there?
The ship, it swayed, heave ho, heave ho
On the dark and stormy blue
And I held tight to the Captain's might
As he pulled up his trews
You haven't slept - heave ho, he said
In many suns and moons
Oh, I will sleep when we reach shore
And pray we get there soon
He said: Now hush love, here's your gown
There's the bed, lantern's down
But I don't want to go to sleep; in all my dreams, I drown
The Captain howled: Heave ho, heave ho
And tied me up with sheets
A storm is brewing in the South
It's time to go to sleep
His berth, it rocks, heave ho, heave ho
The ocean gnashed and moaned
Like Jona will be swallowed whole
And spat back teeth and bones
He said: Now hush love, here's your gown
There's the bed, lantern's down
But I don't want to go to sleep; in all my dreams, I drown
Captain! Captain!
I will do your chores
I will warm your cot at night
And mop your cabin floors
Scold me, hold me
I'll be yours to keep
The only thing I beg of you
Don't make me go to sleep
The sky it flashed, heave ho, heave ho
His pillow toed to the brink
The curtains ran between my legs as we began to sink
I closed my eyes, heave ho, heave ho
As the ship was rent and fell
Eddies in the water headed to the mouth of Hell
Hush now, hush love, here's your gown
There's the bed, lantern's down
I'm begging you please wake me up
In all my dreams I
