bounding main - the mermaid lyrics

Loading...

it was friday morn’ when we set sail
and we were not far from the land
when our captain he spied a mermaid so fair
with a comb and a gl-ss in her hand

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below

then up spoke the captain of our gallant ship
and a fine old man was he!
he said “this fishy mermaid has warned us of our doom
we will sink to the bottom of the sea!”

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below

then up spoke the gunner of this gallant ship
and a sharp-shootin’ arm had she
she said, “i may go down with this ship beneath the waves
but i’m taking me cannons with me!”

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below

then up jumped a laddie from this gallant ship
and he saw the mermaid smiling happily
he said “i’ve never kissed a girl; i’ll give that one a whirl!”
and he leapt to the bottom of the sea

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below

i’ve been stuck on this ship for months and months and months
and i’m sick, as sea sick as can be
they kept sayin’ i get my sea legs soon
but ’til then i’ll be heavin’ in the sea

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below

then up spoke the drunkard of our gallant ship
and an old besotted wretch was he!
he said “i once caught a mermaid this big”

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below

i stowed ‘way on this big old ship
lookin’ for adventure on the sea
so far all i’ve found are rats and mice and fleas
and now they’re the last men that i’ll see!

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below

three times round spun our gallant ship
and three times round spun she
three times round spun our gallant ship
and she sank to the bottom of the sea!

and the ocean waves do roll
and the stormy winds do blow
and we poor sailors go skippin’ at the top
while the landlubbers lie down below below below!
while the landlubbers lie down below
