Jolly Rogers Ship Stuck In Port
A schooner sat at bay while the crew all ran amok
The men they gathered on the pier to see if they were
stuck
They shouted to the ship “Why are you still here in
dock?”
‘Cuz the Captain got his knackers caught in the
mainsheet block.
I’ve seen old women blush from the tales that sailors
told
Of bawdy, ribald adventures some new ones and some old
Scandalous journeys that they’ve taken some long and
some short
But the worst one that I heard of was a ship stuck in
port
The first mate was in charge of making the ship go
But the matey’s got a cask of rum and his whore below
And the boson was belting out a crass and crude old
song
It’s about a cuckoo’s nest but he got the words all
wrong
[CHORUS]
The cabin boy laughed and said it’s time now for some
fun
And he lights off the powder in the foremast gun
The shot it caused a scream below from the first mate’s
whore
Who up and shouted “Chuck it! I’m going off ashore.”
[CHORUS]
Then the mate came up on deck and said, “We all should
go,
I know a place where girls are cheap and the rum it
freely flows”
The crew all asked, “Should we invite the captain, to
be nice”
“Hell no! He’ll stay below with his knackers on some
ice!”
[CHORUS]
[CHORUS]
