derina harvey band – the last shanty كلمات اغاني
[verse 1]
well me father often told me when i was just a lad
a sailor’s life was very hard, the food was always bad
but now i’ve joined the navy, i’m aboard a man_o_war
and now i’ve found a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last
just get your civies ready for another run ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
[verse 2]
well the k!llock of our mess he says we’ve had it soft
it wasn’t like that in his day when he was up aloft
we like our bunks and sleeping bags, but what’s a hammock for?
swinging from the deckhead, or lying on the floor?
[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last
just get your civies ready for another run ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
[verse 2]
they gave us an engine that first went up and down
then with more technology the engine went around
we know our steam and diesel but what’s a mainyard for?
a stoker ain’t a stoker with a shovel anymore
[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last
just get your civies ready for another run ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
[verse 3]
they gave us an aldiss lamp so we could do it right
they gave us a radio, we signaled day and night
we know our codes and ciphers but what’s a cipher for?
a bunting_t_ss_r doesn’t toss a bunting anymore
[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last
just get your civies ready for another run ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
[verse 4]
two cans of beer a day and that’s your bleeding lot
and now we get an extra one because they’ve stopped the tot
so we’ll put on our civvy clothes, find a pub ashore
a sailor’s still a sailor just like he was before
[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last
just get your civies ready for another run ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last
just get your civies ready for another run ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
[outro]
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor any more
