Lyrics:
commotion
Something sounded wrong
His inner spirit was saying
That he couldn't stand here long
He staggered to the quarterdeck
No time now to sleep
The fisherman's son to the ice is gone
On the quarter-deck you'll find him
His belt and sheath he's girded on
And his tow-rope slung behind him
a-cursing all our souls.
The Skipper's on the quarter-deck a-squinting at the sails,
When up aloft the lookout sights a school of whales.
"Now clear away
beat to quarters as they ranged up alongside,
Soon across our quarter-deck there ran a crimson tide.
We fought till Captain Moore was killed and fifteen
(Chorus)
Q's for the quarterdeck where our officers stand
And R's for the rudder that keeps the ship in command
S is for the stunsells that drive her along
from the quarter-deck may not love another who lays
out on the fore-yard arm. For a man is but a man, whether
he hoists his flag at the main-truck or his
And now we're out to sea, my boys, the wind comes on to blow
One-half the watch is sick on deck, the other half below
The skipper's on the quarterdeck
would hurry up and strike, strike the bell
Up on the quarterdeck, our gallant captain stands
Lookin' out to windward with a spyglass in his hand
What he
the Delight, was descried. As she drew nigh, all eyes were fixed upon her broad beams, called shears, which, in some whaling-ships, cross the quarter-deck
the morning blow ye winds, heigh ho
Clear away your running gear and blow, blow, blow
The skipper's on the quarterdeck a-squintin' at the sails
When up aloft
The cannabis chеck, if the pigs find a speck
Better wear a turtle neck because the
Glock's mag is a quarterdeck
I remember back in when a called 5'o
Mommy got
the quarterdeck
Later in the day the captain's courtesy was wine and cheese
Couldn't eat or drink but only think of friends inside the sea
Bodies in the sea decay
And the rest, they may live and learn!
Then we would up and pace,
For a change, about the place,
Each with arm o'er neck:
'Tis our quarter-deck,
We are seamen in
even cast your shadow
On the quarter-deck
The jig's up, rigged up
High and wide
When we're docked
Jock'll show you his tender side
Now there's Brown Bear
left just as it was
cs if the crew had vanished into thin air
Rose and John scoured the quarterdeck
Then the captain's cabin
Just the same, no one was
a heavy sou'west gale
And washed away our boat
It washed away our quarterdeck
Our stanchions just as well
And so we set the whole shebang
A-floatin'
shipmatе
Faldee raldee raldee raldee rye-eye oh
Wе have worked the self-same gun
Quarterdeck division
Sponger I and loader you
Through the whole commission
snow and the whalefishes blow
And the daylight's seldom seen, brave boys
The daylight's seldom seen
Our Captain stood on the quarterdeck
A gallant
