Verses (also 3x)
- Throw him in th' bilge and make him drink it,
- Put him in his cabin and stop his liquour,
- Shave his belly with a rusty razor,
- Trice him up in a runnin' bowline,
- Put him in a dress and call him Betty,
- Tie him to the taffrail when she’s yardarm under,
- Give 'im a dose of salt and water,
- Take him and shake him and try and wake him,
- Give him a taste o' the bosun's rope end,
- Tie him to the taff-rail when she's yard-arm under,
- Put 'em to bed with the Captain's daughter,
- Put him in his bunk with his pants on backwards,
- Stick him in the crow's nest till he's sober,
- Hang him from the yard arm till he's sober,
- Put him in the brig until he sobers,
- Put him in scuppers with a hausepipe on him,
- Put on his back a mustard plaster,
- Put him in the long boat until he's sober,
- Make him captain of an Exxon Tanker,
