it ain't so bad as graveyards goa little damp, but listen closeso you can hear the whispers of a sailors ghoston the day I sailed to seamy mama cried, my daddy prayedbut it saved me from a banker's wageso on the sea I stayedon the sea I stayed
I sailed the seas to learn the starsbut I soon forgot 'emon the day I came to rest upon the soggy bottom
see my pa there with his pipesee my ma there in her gownsee me dance with all the girls in London town.once I was a handsome manI had a girl in every portI lived to love them, I loved to leave themI loved them just for sportI loved them just for sport
I sailed the seas to learn the starsbut I soon forgot 'emon the day I came to rest upon the soggy bottom
come ye sailors, drink until you roardon't you know your money ain't no good no more
now and then, you'll hear my ghostrushing out, rushing incan't you hear the tide is going out againlet the others leave their trackswhere the cold winds ever blowsee them in the violet hour paying what they owepaying what they owe
I sailed the seas to learn the starsbut I soon forgot 'emon the day I came to rest upon the soggy bottomas a lad I loved my kinbut I soon forgot 'emon the day I came to rest upon the soggy bottomupon the soggy bottom
