Drunken Sailor (Sea Shanty) Lyrics by Steve Void

Strange Fruits Music

2021

[Chorus]
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning

Way hey, and up she rises
Way hey, and up she rises
Way hey, and up she rises
Early in the morning

Early in the morning

[Drop/Chorus]
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning

Early in the morning
Early in the morning

[Part 2]
Put him in a long boat 'till he's sober
Put him in a long boat 'till he's sober
Put him in a long boat 'till he's sober
Early in the morning
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter
Put him in the bed with the captain's daughter
Early in the morning

Way hey, and up she rises
Way hey, and up she rises
Way hey, and up she rises
Early in the morning

[Chorus]
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning

Early in the morning

[Drop]
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
What do we do with a drunken sailor
Early in the morning

Early in the morning
Early in the morning
