Early in the morning
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Early in the morning
Shave his belly with a rusty razor
Shave his belly with a rusty razor
Shave his belly with a rusty razor
Early in the morning
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Early in the morning
Put him in the longboat until he's sober
Put him in the longboat until he's sober
Put him in the longboat until he's sober
Early in the morning
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Early in the morning
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter
Early in the morning
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Early in the morning
Put him in the scuppers with a hosepipe on him
Put him in the scuppers with a hosepipe on him
Put him in the scuppers with a hosepipe on him
Early in the morning
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Early in the morning
Well, that's what we do with the drunken sailor
What we do with the drunken sailor
That's what we do with the drunken sailor
Early in the morning
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Way hay, and up she rises
Early in the morning
