Lyrics
(Leader) listen lads, ye young and old
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) went to the pub to spend my gold
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) Catch the eye of a fair young lady
(Chorus) sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) her daddy is the captain of the “old wet batey”
(Chorus) sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) the old wet batey is an awful cursed boat
(Chorus) sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) and the captain is an ugly drunken bloke
(Chorus) sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) we’re served half a ration of food a day
(Chorus) Sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) not to mention half a month behind on pay
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) we sailed for Cuba with a makeshift crew
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) an old salty yank, a skipper and a jew
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) we ran across a French frigate and a pink
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) we let cannons fly and made one sink
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) the first salvo came and the mast was hit
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) the second salvo flew, boys now we’re in the shit
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) if you ever meet a wench with a father who’s a captain
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) turn tail and run and this won’t ever happen
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) now I’m floating on a board shaped like a banana
(Chorus) sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) floating on a board off the port of Havana
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) came ashore after two days of strain
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) went to to the pub to ease my pain
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) I caught the gaze of a fine señorita
(Chorus)sink the ship and sail away
(Leader) her daddy was the captain of the La Malavita
(Sudden stop)
