Men of the Sea
Men of the sea
Bobbin up and down like this
Sailing the ocean
Bobbin up and down like this
Well you don’t know how hard it is
Bobbin up and down like
Bobbin up and down like
Bobbin up and down like this.
Men of the sea
Bobbin up and down like
Swabbin up the deck like this
Sailing the ocean
Bobbin up and down like
Swabbin up the deck like this
Well you don’t know how hard it is
Bobbin up and down like
Swabbin up the deck like
Bobbin up and down like
Swabbin up the deck like
Bobbin up and down like
Swabbin up the deck like this.
