oscar brand - we ain't going to sea no more lyrics
[verse 1]
we have seen our aircraft carriers, we have heard the cruisers roar
we’ve seen our battle wagons sweeping everything before
but we’re stuck aboard this tin can till the godd+mn war is o’er
well, we ain’t going to sea no more
[chorus]
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
we ain’t going to sea no more
[verse 2]
submariners get the glory when they come home from the scr+p
landing craft men get promotions while the seabees get a nap
aviators get the medals, tin can sailors get the cr+p
we ain’t going to sea no more
[chorus]
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
we ain’t going to sea no more
[verse 3]
there is rust upon the fo’c’sle, there is soot upon her stacks
there is fuel oil in her bilge and salt upon her depth charge racks
barnacles on her bottom, and we got ’em in our cracks
well, we ain’t going to sea no more
[chorus]
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
we ain’t going to sea no more
[verse 4]
when marines and troops are landing, and the going’s gettin’ rough
then the call goes out for tin cans, “sh+ll the beach and make it tough”
then the papers praise the cruisers, and the tin cans take the guff
well, we ain’t going to sea no more
[chorus]
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
we ain’t going to sea no more
[verse 6]
and in the bl++dy battle when the fleet is in a mess (holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die)
they holler for the tin cans, and they send for us express (holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die)
who cares if, when it’s over, there’s a tin can more or less (holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die)
well, we ain’t going to sea no more
[chorus]
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
holy jesus, what a h+ll of a way to die
we ain’t going to sea no more
