Sea Shanties Lyric Part 5 Of 7

21. So Early In The Morning

The mate was drunk and he went below to take a swig at his bottle o
So early in the morning the sailor likes his bottle o
The bottle o, the bottle o, the sailor loves his bottle o
A bottle of rum, a bottle o gin, a bottle of irish whiskey o
The baccy o, tabaccy o, the sailor loves his baccy o
A packet o shag, a packet o cut a plug of hard terbaccy o
The lassies o, the maidens o, the sailor loves the judies o
A lass from the 'pool, a girl from the Tyne, a chowlah so fine and dandy o
A bully rough house, a bully rough house, the sailor likes his rough house o
Tread on me coat and all hands in, a bully good rough- and tumble o
A sing song o, a sing song o, the sailor likes a sing song o
A drinking song, a song o love, a ditty of seas and shipmates o

22. Fish In The Sea

Come all you young sailor men, listen to me,
I'l sing you a song of the fish in the sea;

And it's—
Windy weather, boys, stormy weather, boys.
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys;
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds, blow,
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes.

Up jumps the eel with his slippery tail,
Climbs up aloft and reefs the topsail

And it's—
Windy weather, boys, stormy weather, boys.
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys;
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds, blow,
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes.

Then up jumps the shark with his nine rows of teeth,
Saying, "You eat the dough boys, and I'D eat the beef!"

And it's—
Windy weather, boys, stormy weather, boys.
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys;
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds, blow,
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes.

Up jumps the whale., the largest of all,
"If you want any wind, well, I'll blow ye a squall!!

And it's—
Windy weather, boys, stormy weather, boys.
When the wind blows, we're all together, boys;
Blow ye winds westerly, blow ye winds, blow,
Jolly sou'wester, boys, steady she goes.

23. The Rio Grande

0 say was you ever in Rio Grande?
A-weigh, you Rio!
It's there that the river brings down golden sand,
For we're bound for the Rio Grande

And away, boys, away.
A-weigh, you Rio!
It's fare-you-well my bonny young girls,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande

It's fare well to you all the girts of the town.
A-weigh, you Rio!
You got our half-pay for to keep you around,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande!

And away, boys, away.
A-weigh, you Rio!
It's fare-you-well my bonny young girls,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande

She's a deep water ship and a deep water crew.
A-weigh, you Rio!
You can keep to the coast but we're dammed if we do,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande!

And away, boys, away.
A-weigh, you Rio!
It's fare-you-well my bonny young girls,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande
We was sick of the beach when our money was gone.
A-weigh, you Rio!
And sign in this packet to drive her along,
And we're bound for the Rio Grande!

24. Captain Kidd

O, my name was Captain Kidd,
as I sailed, as I sailed,
O, my name was Captain Kidd,
as I sailed.
My name was Captain Kidd
And God's laws I did forbid,
And so wickedly I did
as I sailed, as I sailed.
So wickedly I did
as I sailed.

I murdered William Moore,
as I sailed, as I sailed.
O, I murdered William Moore
as I sailed.
I laid him in his gore,
Not many leagues from the shore,
O, I murdered William Moore,
as I sailed, as I sailed.
I murdered William Moore
as I sailed.

I spied three ships from Spain
as I sailed, as I sailed,
O, I spied three ships from Spain
as I sailed.
I spied three ships from Spain,
and I fired on them a-main,
And most of them I slain,
as I sailed, as I sailed.
And most of them I slain
as I sailed.

Come all you young and old,
see me die, see me die.
Come all you young and old,
see me die.
You are welcome to my goal,
And by it I lost my soul
Come all you young and old,
I must die, I must die.
Come all you young and old,
I must die.
