[00:33.09] A gargantuan hole in the bow

[00:36.20] Will the ocean to enter allow

[00:39.59] Oh what's more of a sin than letting it in?

[00:42.96] It's letting our good fortune out

[00:46.63] The nest to the storm did succumb

[00:49.75] While the crow hid his fear in the rum

[00:53.15] And the mast it broke and threw out the bloke

[00:56.54] And well now he's surely my chum

[01:06.72] Love letters from under his bed

[01:09.82] Holds a cabin boy over his head

[01:13.48] A futile try to keep it dry what tears have already wet

[01:19.98] They were pinned by a girl in Merak

[01:23.36] And the Javanese value their tact

[01:27.03] She'll conclude he's horribly rude

[01:30.14] Cause he's sure as hell not writing back

[01:33.24] Because this ship's going down

[01:37.46] All on account of the weather

[01:41.13] Though we'll drown

[01:42.54] There's no need to frown

[01:43.95] Cause we're all going together

[01:47.06] And I won't say "Woe is me"

[01:50.43] As I disappear into the sea

[01:53.81] Cause I'm in good company

[01:57.21] As we're all going together

[02:07.35] I've had women of every kind

[02:11.00] But the only one truly was mine

[02:14.38] Is the one at home who'll be alone

[02:17.73] When I am full-up with brine

[02:21.11] For my son I had always a plan

[02:24.50] For to raise him as best as I can

[02:27.90] Oh well you can bet

[02:29.59] My only regret is to not see him grow to a man

[02:34.12] Cause this ship's going down

[02:38.09] All on account of the weather

[02:41.47] Though we'll drown

[02:43.16] There's no need to frown

[02:44.86] Cause we're all going together

[02:47.96] And I won't say "Woe is me"

[02:51.33] As I disappear into the sea

[02:55.00] Cause I'm in good company

[02:58.10] As we're all going together

[03:34.78] I was sinking down into the brine

[03:38.72] When a curious sight caught my eye

[03:42.38] Seaman Shaft had found him a raft

[03:45.48] And was makin' a speedy goodbye

[03:48.84] At the risk of sounding absurd

[03:52.22] I have always been good as my word

[03:55.60] So a fish-gig, I, lanced into his eye

[03:58.96] And I knocked his ass overboard!

[04:02.34] Cause this ship's going down

[04:06.29] All on account of the weather

[04:09.66] Though we'll drown

[04:11.36] There's no need to frown

[04:12.77] Cause we're all going together

[04:15.87] And I won't say "Woe is me"

[04:20.38] As I disappear into the sea

[04:25.18] Oh hell!

[04:28.29] Cause you've all been so good to me

[04:35.61] So we're all going together
