The Drunken Sailor
Chorus
Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Earl-eye in the morning
What shall we do with a drunken sailor (3x)
Earl-eye in the morning!
Put him in a long-boat till he's sober
Keep him there and make 'im bale 'er.
Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Earl-eye in the morning
Trice him up in a runnin' bowline.
Tie him to the tasffrail when she's yard-arm under.
Put him in the scuppers with a hose-pipe on him.
Take 'im and shake 'im and try an' wake 'im
Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Way hay and up she rises
Earl-eye in the morning
Take 'im and shake 'im and try an' wake 'im
Give 'im a dose of salt and water.
Give 'im a taste of the bosun's rope-end.
Stick on 'is back a mustard plaster.
Soak 'im in oil till he sprouts a flipper.
Shave his belly with a rusty razor.
Put him in the guard room till he gets sober.
