[singing]  Oh, the boson’s mate was very sedate
Yet fond of amusement too.
He’s play hopscotch with the starboard watch
While the captain tickled the crew.
And the gunner we had was apparently mad
For he sat on the after rai-ai-ail
As he fired salutes with the captain’s boots
In the teeth of the booming gale.
[chorus] [JB joints]
                Then blow ye winds, heigh ho!
                A’sailing I will go.
                I’ll sail no more on England’s shores
                So let the music play–ay–ay!
                I’m off on the morning train.
                I’ll cross the raging main.
                I’m off to my  love with a boxing glove
                Ten thousand miles away.
