What shall we do with the drunken sailor
What shall we do with the drunken sailor
What shall we do with the drunken sailor early in the morning
 
Hey ho and up she rises
Hey ho and up she rises
Hey ho and up she rises early in the morning
 
Throw him in the hull with the captain's daughter
Throw him in the hull with the captain's daughter
Throw him in the hull with the captain's daughter early in the morning
 
Shave his balls with a rusty razor
Shave his balls with a rusty razor
Shave his balls with a rusty razor early in the morning
 
Hey ho and up she rises
Hey ho and up she rises
Hey ho and up she rises early in the morning
 

 

 

Well, don't cry my baby
Don't you cry all the while
Don't cry my baby
Just give me a smile
Seen my daddy die in the war
Seen my mama a-die crying for him

Ring, ring
Well, I've got to sing
Ring, ring
Well, I've got to sing
De dam dadda de day 


They call me a hounddog
They call me a liar
It's all 'cause of my colour
They want me to hide


They're talking about freedom
Of religion and race
But if you are a negro
They slap you in the face


So what are you fighting for
They send 'm off to sea
Well, I couldn't stand more words
I'm gonna stop free


Well, I'm still happy
So don't cry my babe
Together we'll just try for
Being free people some day
