fisherman's friends - sailor ain't a sailor كلمات الأغنية

my father always 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, aboard a man o’ war
but now i find a sailor ain’t a sailor anymore

the k!ll!ck of our mess, he says we got it soft
i wasn’t like this in his day when he was up aloft
we like our bunks and sleeping bags, and what’s a hammock for?
a_swingin’ from the deckhead or lying on the floor?

they gave us an engine, the first one up and down
with some 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
don’t pull on the rope!
don’t climb up the mast!
if you see a sailin’ ship it might be your last
get your savings ready for another round ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor anymore

they gave us an aldis lamp, so we could do it right
they gave us a radio to signal day and night
we know our codes and ciphers, but what’s a semaphore?
a bunting t_ss_r doesn’t toss the bunting anymore

two cans of beer a day and that’s your bleedin’ lot
they gave us an extra one because we swabbed the top
so get on your civvy clothes, you’ll find a pub ashore
a sailor’s still a sailor, just like he was before!

don’t pull on the rope!
don’t climb up the mast!
if you see a sailin’ ship it might be your last
get your savings ready for another round ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor anymore
don’t pull on the rope!
don’t climb up the mast!
if you see a sailin’ ship it might be your last
get your savings ready for another round ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor anymore
