Drunken Sailor

What do you do with a drunken sailor
What do you do with a drunken sailor
What do you do with a drunken sailor
Early in the mornin’

Away hey an’ up she rises
Way hey an’ up she rises
Way hey an’ up she rises
Early in the mornin’

Shave his belly with a rusty razor…

Put him in the longboat until he’s sober…

Hoist him aloft with a runnin’ bowline

Put him in the scuppers with a hose-pipe on him…

Take ‘im and shake ‘im and try to wake ‘im…

Give him a dose of salt and water…

That’s what you do with a drunken sailor…



"Take up thy cross and follow Me," I heard my Master say: "I gave My life to ransom thee, Surrender your all today."
- McKinney, Baylus Benjamin (1886-1952)
