Ooooh, A captain's life seems elegant
With far more booze than regiment
He's required to provide
For all the crew aboard
When provisions are running short
And if the ship is far from port
The Cap himself must sacrifice
For all the crew aboard
There's no rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum
No rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum
He opens up his lighter, fair
And from his barrels he must prepare
Intoxicants of the finest sort
For all the crew aboard
But when provisions are running short
And if the ship is far from port
The Cap himself must sacrifice
For all the crew aboard
No rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum
No rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum
What should we do with the drunken sailor
What should we do with the drunken sailor
What should we do with the drunken sailor
Early in the morning!
