Drunken Sailor Song

The Tune:

What do you do with a drunken sailor?
What do you do with a drunken sailor?
What do you do with a drunken sailor?
Early in the morning?

Chorus:
Way, hey, up she rises,
Way, hey, up she rises,
Way, hey, up she rises,
Early in the morning!

Verses:
Put him in the scuppers with the hose pipe on him.

Hoist him aboard with a running bowline.

Put him in the brig until he's sober.

Make him turn to at shining bright work.

Put him in a boat and row him over.

Hoist him up to the topsail yardarm.

Give 'im a taste of the bosun's rope-end.

Take 'im and shake 'im and try an' wake 'im.

Soak 'im in oil till he sprouts a flipper.

Shave his belly with a rusty razor.

Put him at the wheel of an Exxon tanker.

Make him sing in an Irish Rock band.

Lock him in a room with disco music.

That's what you do with a drunken sailor.

---

Built her keel of sturdy timber.

40 men did board upon her.

She set sail for the great far yonder.

She sailed into a great noreaster.

She went down with all hands on her.

Now this ghost ship that we speak of,
Rises in the morning.

---

What do you do with a sleepy camper,
What do you do with a sleepy camper,
What do you do with a sleepy camper,
Early in the morning?

Chorus
Way, hey late ye risers
Way, hey late ye risers
Way, hey late ye risers
Early in the morning.

Throw him the lake with his pants on backwards.
Chorus

Hit him in the face with a sopping beachtowel.
Chorus

Put him into bed an hour sooner.
Chorus
