lyrics

Come along sailors and gather ‘round me
I’ll teach you some words you can use out at sea
If you be very quiet and listen up here
You’ll notice these words all sound kinda queer

Ferries & Tugboats
Yard-arm & poop deck
Shiver me timbers
Pulpit & head

First mate & Dinghy
Backstay & bumpkin
Going down, hawsehole
Jackstaff & Jibb


Porthole & Coxswain
Raise the periscope
Swab the deck &
Open the hatch

Popping the chute
Flood the torpedo tube
Coming about
Sea-cock & sextant

Grinder & Scuttlebutt
Futtock & Bulkhead
Foreguy & Aftguy
Baggy wrinkle & Screw

Now that you’ve learned all of my Sea Words
We just might make a Seamen outta you
