Sailing Medley

Blow The Man Down

I’ll sing you a song, a good song of the sea
With a way! Hey! Blow the man down!
And trust that you’ll join in the chorus with me
Give me some time to blow the man down
There was an old skipper; I don’t know his name
With a way! Hey! Blow the man down!
Although he once played a remarkable game
Give me some time to blow the man down
His ship lay becalmed in the tropical seas
With a way! Hey! Blow the man down!
He whistled all day, but in vain, for a breeze
Give me some time to blow the man down

   My Bonnie Lies Over The Ocean

My bonnie lies over the ocean
My bonnie lies over the sea
My bonnie lies over the ocean
Oh, bring back my bonnie to me
Bring back, bring back
Oh, bring back my bonnie to me, to me
Bring back, bring back
Oh, bring back my bonnie to me

   Sailing, Sailing

Sailing, sailing over the bounding main
For many a stormy wind shall blow ere Jack comes home again
Sailing, sailing over the bounding main
For many a stormy wind shall blow ere Jack comes home again

   Up The Rises

Chorus:
Way, hey and up she rises
Way, hey and up she rises
Way, hey and up she rises
Early in the morning
What do you do with a drunken sailor?
What do you do with a drunken sailor?
What do you do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning?
Put him in a longboat ’til he’s sober
Put him in a longboat ’til he’s sober
Put him in a longboat ’til he’s sober
Early in the morning
Chorus

On Top of Old Smoky

On top of Old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
For courtin’ too slow
For courtin’s a pleasure
And parting is grief
And a false-hearted lover
Is worse than a thief
For a thief will just rob you
And take all your pay
But a false-hearted lover
Will lead you astray
On top of Old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
For courtin’ too slow

Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle went to town
A-riding on a pony
Stuck a feather in his hat
And called it macaroni
Chorus:
Yankee Doodle, keep it up
Yankee Doodle Dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
Father and I went down to camp
Along with Captain Goodwin
There were the men and boys
As thick as hasty puddin’
Chorus
And there was Captain Washington
Upon a slapping stallion
Giving orders to his men
I guess there were a million
Chorus
"Yankee Doodle" is a tune
That comes in mighty handy
The enemy all runs away
At "Yankee Doodle Dandy"
Chorus
