Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The boatswain’s a tyrant, the Captain’s a bore,
I’m sick of the salt and the distance from shore.
But there’s a sweet lady who keeps me afloat,
The only true beauty aboard of this boat!
(Chorus)
Oh, Grog, you’re the amber that glows in my cup,
You pull me back down when the world’s bottom-up!
With sugar and citrus and water and bite,
You’re the only thing keeping my binnacle bright!
(Verse 2)
The Cook’s "Lobscouse" tastes like a boiled leather boot,
The biscuit is crunchy with weevils to boot.
But one sip of you and I’m dining like kings,
I don’t need no feathers to feel I’ve got wings!
(Chorus)
Oh, Grog, you’re the amber that glows in my cup,
You pull me back down when the world’s bottom-up!
With sugar and citrus and water and bite,
You’re the only thing keeping my binnacle bright!
(Verse 3)
I’d marry a mermaid with scales on her knee,
Or live in a barrel at bottom of sea.
If only you’d promise to stay by my side,
And drown out the sound of the incoming tide!
(Chorus)
Oh, Grog, you’re the amber that glows in my cup,
You pull me back down when the world’s bottom-up!
With sugar and citrus and water and bite,
You’re the only thing keeping my binnacle bright!
(Outro)
So pour out a double, and make it a three,
The rum is the husband, the water is me!
We’re wed in a mug till the morning is grey,
Then we’ll stagger and pump all the ocean away!
