I may go down to the sea again, Yes Sir say I, for a gold doubloon, a mermaid’s tune or a shell shall I espy.
The rowdy air a rounders fare, no hard work for me. I’ll give her heck and scrub the deck till I can hide upon the lee.
And as I sail for warmer waves, a swaying in the main, I’ll keep an eagles eye from mast on high the Sandwitches on my brain.
The isles of fame where none do work but poke a coconut or two and rummage round for feral pig to plop into my stew.
I’ll wake at noon and go surfing daily and when I’m tired of that I’ll doff my hat to ladies playing ukulele.
No frozen yards, no long cold hauls, no balls frozen off the brass monkey. I’ll laze on beach sipping good nut milk till I get fat and chunky.
A baby or two to make my crew and wife to cook and Steward, I’ll laugh and play each and every day and never take them seaward!
