The Captain Stood Sturdy

歌詞

I was just a pirate I didn't understand the sea And when I looked upon it It never said much to me At night as I laid in the cabin I dreamt of cutting sail As the crew sat around and played poker I knew that I would fail Oh no, I won't pass the brig all together Oh no, if I could only sing, I'd be alright The captain, he stood sturdy As he firmly turned the wheel He looked at me with his one eye Saying, "Son, how do you feel?" And to this I had no answer Just a longing for the shore And the captain he grew angry Saying, "You're what planks are for" Oh no, I won't pass the brig all together Oh no, iif I could only sing, I'd be alright Oh no, I won't pass the brig all together Oh no, if I could only sing, I'd be alright
