Capitol Ship - Glenn Yarbrough[00:00:00]

A capital ship for an ocean trip[00:00:09]

Was the Walloping Window Blind[00:00:11]

No wind that blew dismayed her crew[00:00:13]

Or troubled the captain's mind[00:00:15]

The man at the wheel was made to feel[00:00:17]

Contempt for the wildest blow[00:00:19]

Though it oft appeared when the gale had cleared[00:00:23]

That he'd been in his bunk below[00:00:25]

So blow ye winds heigh ho[00:00:28]

A roving I will go[00:00:29]

I'll stay no more on England's shore[00:00:31]

So let the music play[00:00:33]

I'm off for the morning train[00:00:35]

To cross the raging main[00:00:37]

I'm off to my love with a boxing glove[00:00:39]

10 000 miles away[00:00:41]

The boss mate was very sedate[00:00:47]

Yet fond of amusement too[00:00:49]

He played hop scotch with the starboard watch[00:00:50]

While the captain tickled the crew[00:00:53]

The gunner he was apparently mad[00:00:55]

For he sat on the after rail[00:00:57]

And fired salutes with the captain's boots[00:01:00]

In the teeth of a booming gale[00:01:03]

Then we all fell ill as mariners will[00:01:13]

On a diet that's rough and crude[00:01:15]

And we shivered and shook[00:01:17]

As we dipped the cook[00:01:18]

In a tub of his gluesome food[00:01:19]

All nautical pride we cast aside[00:01:21]

And we ran the vessel ashore[00:01:23]

On the Gulliby Isles[00:01:26]

Where the poopoo smiles[00:01:27]

And the rubbily ubdugs roar[00:01:28]

Blow ye winds heigh ho[00:01:30]

A roving I will go[00:01:32]

I'll stay no more on England's shore[00:01:34]

So let the music play[00:01:36]

I'm off for the morning train[00:01:38]

To cross the raging main[00:01:40]

I'm off to my love with a boxing glove[00:01:42]

10 000 miles away[00:01:44]

Composed of sand was that favored land[00:01:50]

And trimmed with cinnamon straws[00:01:52]

And pink and blue was the pleasing hue[00:01:54]

Of the ticke toe teaser's claws[00:01:56]

We sat on the edge of a sandy ledge[00:01:58]

And shot at the whistling bee[00:02:01]

While the rugabug bats wore waterproof hats[00:02:05]

As they dipped in the shining sea[00:02:07]

On rugabug bark from dawn till dark[00:02:12]

We dined till we all had grown[00:02:14]

Uncommonly shrunk when a Chinese junk[00:02:17]

Came up from the Torrible Zone[00:02:19]

She was stubby and square [00:02:21]

But we didn't much care[00:02:22]

So we cherrily put to sea[00:02:23]

And we left all the crew of the junk to chew[00:02:28]

On the bark of the rubabug tree[00:02:30]

Blow ye winds heigh ho[00:02:32]

A roving I will go[00:02:34]

I'll stay no more on England's shore[00:02:36]

So let the music play[00:02:38]

I'm off for the morning train[00:02:40]

To cross the raging main[00:02:42]

I'm off to my love with a boxing glove[00:02:44]

10 000 miles away[00:02:46]
