The ship, it swayed, heave ho, heave ho,
On the dark and stormy blue,
And I held tight to the Captain's might
As he pulled up his trews.
You haven't slept, heave ho, he said,
In many suns and moons.
Oh, I will sleep when we reach shore,
And pray we get there soon.
He said, Now hush love, heres your gown.
Theres the bed, lanterns down.
But I dont want to go to sleep; in all my dreams, I drown.
