That Liverpool ship, that wonderful ship, now that's
the ship for me
She's called the Queen Fairy and she's quite a sight to
see
The ship's all manned by women, not a single bloke in
sight
Except for me, the cabin boy, who tucks them in at
night.
Now on that ship our boatswain's name was “Foghorn'
Fanny Pearl
Around the world you'll not find such a playful,
willing girl
But every time we'd go below she'd let forth such a
howl
The Cap'n would yell, “There she blows! There's whales
off the bow'!
[CHORUS]
The gunner's name was Charlotte Payne and she was full
of spite
She kept a loaded blunderbuss in bed with her at night
And so she caught me as I climbed into her tiny bed
“My gun is cocked,' She grinned and said, “But I'll
cock yours instead'!
[CHORUS]
“Sunlight' Sally, our First Mate, a natural blonde is
she
She suns in the nude upon the deck for all the crew to
see
I rub her skin with slippery oils from her feet up to
her neck
And when we make love I slip right off and slide across
the deck
[CHORUS]
Then there's our cook, and I might add, a truly filling
dish.
She goes with wine, she goes with ale, she goes with
fowl or fish.
When I'm hungry for a snack I slip right down below
And have myself a little bite of luscious Lucy Blow.
[CHORUS]
Our Captain, Young Colleen McBust, now she was best of
all
She has two certain features just as large as
cannonballs
Like two moons they're big and round and alabaster
white
And like all heavenly bodies, they're sure to come out
tonight!
