Track 7: The Drunken Sailor

traditional
arranged by The MacLeods

There's just one question, which has baffled mankind through the ages...

Text

What shall we do with the drunken sailor...
early in the morning?

Hooray and up she rises...
early in the morning.

Shake him and take him and try to awake him...
early in the morning.

Give him a dose of salt and water...
early in the morning.

Put him in the long boat 'till he's sober...
early in the morning.

Put him in the bed of the Captain's daughter...
early in the morning.

That's what to do with the drunken sailor...
early in the morning.
