Abney Park - Buy The Captain Rum lyrics

[Abney Park - Buy The Captain Rum lyrics]

O-o-o oh, A captain's life seems elegant
With far more booze than regiment
He's required to provide
For all the crew aboard

When provisions are running short
And if the ship is far from port
The Cap himself must sacrifice
For all the crew aboard

There's no rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum
No rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum

He opens up his lighter, fair
And from his barrels he must prepare
Intoxicants of the finest sort
For all the crew aboard

But when provisions are running short
And if the ship is far from port
The Cap himself must sacrifice
For all the crew aboard

No rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum

No rum in the captain's barrel
There's rum on the captain's table
And rum in the captain's crew
So buy the captain rum

What should we do with the drunken sailor
What should we do with the drunken sailor
What should we do with the drunken sailor
Early in the morning!
