Rescue Mission - Kris Kristofferson (克里斯·克里斯托佛森)[00:00:00]

The captain touched his swagger stick[00:00:14]

Up to his golden eye[00:00:17]

And boogied through the vestibule[00:00:21]

While bidding us goodbye[00:00:25]

The enemy surrounds us[00:00:28]

And our spirits almost gone[00:00:31]

The Devil take the cavalry[00:00:35]

That sold us for a song[00:00:39]

There's Chi-Chi's on the starboard lads[00:00:54]

And Chi-Chi's in the stern[00:00:57]

And hashish in the hookah pipes[00:01:00]

And bonny grass to burn[00:01:04]

Our mission is a secret[00:01:07]

But we're fool enough to try[00:01:10]

We'll sail the bloody ocean boys[00:01:14]

Or drink the bastard dry[00:01:17]

"If I'd've been a carpenter " the swarthy[00:01:32]

Sergeant said[00:01:37]

"I'd never seen this ugly thing[00:01:39]

That hangs above my head[00:01:43]

The hell with all your heros[00:01:46]

And the wounds they hope to show[00:01:50]

I'm just a simple soldier son[00:01:53]

With one more year to go"[00:01:57]

The Albatross was tiring[00:02:12]

And the cook was in a stew[00:02:15]

The filthy little cabin boy[00:02:19]

Was whizzing in my shoe[00:02:22]

The Captain's wife was aging[00:02:25]

And the first mate heard her scream[00:02:28]

When Tommy slipped tabasco in the[00:02:32]

Captain's vaseline[00:02:35]

"Our time will soon be gone " he said[00:02:50]

"It's all we've left to lose[00:02:53]

We've shot our ammunition[00:02:57]

And we're all but out of booze[00:03:00]

So here's to Irma Donegal[00:03:04]

Here's to Nellie Blye[00:03:07]

And here's to my old friend " he said[00:03:11]

And kissed his a** goodbye[00:03:14]

"Give off give off You sorry lot [00:03:29]

Give off " the Captain cried[00:03:32]

"we've lost our bloody anchor[00:03:35]

And we're driftin' with the tide[00:03:38]

The swollen surf is pounding[00:03:42]

Like a thousand cannons roar[00:03:45]

And I shake the hand of any man[00:03:49]

Who guides us into shore "[00:03:52]

"We're saved We're saved "[00:04:07]

The soldiers said[00:04:09]

"We're saved " the sailors cried[00:04:11]

And soldiers climbed aboard[00:04:14]

While sailors left from either side[00:04:17]

Some swabbies hit the minefield and[00:04:21]

The rifles got the rest[00:04:25]

And somewhere there's a schooner[00:04:28]

Sinkin' slowly in the west[00:04:31]
