When I woke up this night the ship was sinkin'
Ship was sinking do-o-own
The lifeboat is wrecked and the ship is sinkin
Ship is sinking down
The lookout is drunk and the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And fire is loose and the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
So – cut off the rope cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And the captain's marooned and the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
The riggin's ablaze an' the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
Oh cut the prisoners loose, cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
Now starboard is to the left
Larboard is to the right
Nowhere be land in sight
Ship is sinking
The rudder be in a spin
Water be flooding in
Ship is sinking down
Now spit in your hat cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And finish yer rum cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
Sweet molly me love the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And I curse you marlene for the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
And learn how to swim cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And take off yer boots cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
And man all the pumps, cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And climb fer the nest, cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
And all hands on deck cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And gangplank fer all cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
And swabboy be captain - the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And settle yer debts cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
And swallow yer hat, cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
And say all yer prayers cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
Abandon all hope cause the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking do-o-own
An' shiver me timbers the ship is sinkin'
Ship is sinking down
Now starboard is to the left
Larboard is to the right
Nowhere be land in sight
Ship is sinking
The rudder be in a spin
Water be flooding in
Ship is sinking down
Now starboard is to the left
Larboard is to the right
Nowhere be land in sight
Ship is sinking
The rudder is in a spin
Water be flooding in
Ship is sinking down
