Sea Chanty

[David Fulton <dhfulton@ERICIR.SYR.EDU>]

Here are the lyrics that I know.

Tie him to the wheel and call him captain (3x)

Shave his belly with a rusty razor  (3x)

Throw him in the rack with the captain's daughter (what grade level is
this for?) (3x)

Pull out the plug and wet him all over   (3x)

Put him in the bilge and make him drink it  (3x)

Keel haul him til he's sober  (3x)

And.....

Lock him in a room with disco music (3x)

The last line is  "That's what we do with the drunken sailor, early in the
morning."    Also, early is pronounced er-lie.
A rousing version of this song can be found on the record "Day of the
Clipper," by the band Schooner Fare.(OGR8878)
