Lyrics:

[verse 1]When I woke up this night ye ship was sinking
Ship is sinking down
The lifeboat is wrecked and the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
The lookout is drunk and the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Fire is loose and the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down

[Verse 2]
So cut off the ropes cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
The captain’s marooned and the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
The riggin’s ablaze and the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Cut the prisoners loose, cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down

[Chorus]
Starboard is to the left, larboard now to the right
nowhere be land in sight, ship is sinking
The rudder be in a spin, water is flooding in
ship is sinking down

[Riff]

[Verse 3]
Now spit in your hat cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Finish yer rum cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Sweet Molly me love the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
I curse you Marlene for the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down

[Riff]

[Verse 4]
Learn how to swim cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Take off yer boots cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Man all the pumps, cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Climb fer the nest, cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down

[Riff]

[verse 5
All hands on deck cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Gangplank fer all cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Swabboy be captain when the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Settle yer debts cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down

[Verse 6]
Swallow yer hat, cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Say all yer prayers cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
Abandon all hope cause the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down
and shiver me timbers the ship is sinking
Ship is sinking down

[Riff]

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Starboard is to the left, larboard now to the right,
nowhere be land in sight, ship is sinking
The rudder be in a spin, water is flooding ins
hip is sinking down

[Chorus]
Starboard is to the left, larboard now to the right,
nowhere be land in sight, ship is sinking
The rudder be in a spin, water is flooding in
ship is sinking down
