steeleye span - tonight's the night lyrics

Loading...

northerly, bobbing up and down,
along with all the others.
half of them have cousins in the town,
and the other half are brothers.

chorus: and tonight, tonight they’re all ash-r-.
when they’ve had enough to drink, they’ll drink some
more,
and that’s what the old town’s for.
tonight’s the night for drinking!

southerly, and it’s blowing up a gale
from portsmouth down to dover.
there they are all supping up the ale,
until the storm is over. chorus

easterly, and it’s anybody’s guess,
and a few of them are out there hauling.
but most of them, they take a little rest,
when they hear lord nelson calling. chorus

westerly, and nothing but the sound
of a thousand seagulls screaming.
it’s thirsty work, that bobbing up and down,
so it’s homeward bound they’re steaming. chorus

repeat 1.

last chorus: and tonight, tonight they’re all ash-r-.
when they’ve had enough to drink, they’ll drink some
more.
who ever said lord nelson’s dead?
tonight’s the night for drinking!
