The Mermaid Song 歌词

Twas Friday morn when we set sail And we were not far from the land When the captain, he spied a lovely mermaid With a comb and a glass in her hand O the ocean's waves will roll And the stormy winds will blow While we poor sailors go skipping to the top And the landlubbers lie down below (below, below) And the landlubbers lie down below And up spoke the captain of our gallant ship And a well-spoken man was he I have me a wife in Salem by the sea And tonight she a widow will be And up spoke the cookie of our gallant ship And a red hot cookie was he Saying I care much more for my pots and my pans Than I do for the bottom of the sea Then up spoke the cabinboy, of our gallant ship And a nasty little lad was he. I'm not quite sure I can spell "mermaid" But I'm going to the bottom of the sea. Then three times around went our gallant ship And three times around went she Three times around went our gallant ship And she sank to the bottom of the sea
