DRUNKEN SAILOR
(Traditional)


Chorus
Way, hay up she rises,
Way, hay, up she rises,
Way, hay, up she rises,
Earlye in the morning!

What will we do with the drunken sailor?
What will we do with the drunken sailor?
What will we do with the drunken sailor?
Earlye in the morning?

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
Make him clean out all the spit-kids
That's what you do with a drunken sailor

(The last line of this verse is followed by "Amen")
