Blow The Man Down Lyrics

Captain Dan & The Scurvy Crew Blow The Man Down

(Chorus)
When I was a sailor
who lived on the sea
Weeey oh
blow the man down
I knew that only
a pirate i'd be
Weeey oh
blows the man down

(Sea Dawg)
I step in the black mongoose and what what do i see
a scurvy knave in the seat saved for me
I buy him a drink and ask where he's from
then bash his head in with a bottle of rum
dazed and confused, he attempts to flee
but me and the men drag his ass out to sea
he's stuck in the bilge, locked tight in a cage
I burn his hometown in a murderous rage
his body now lies in the depths of the bay
I return to the bar and to my dismay
another sailor sits in my domain
so I buy him a drink and start over again

(Chorus)

(Cap D)
there once was this time
when I drank too much wine
and when I woke up
I was surrounded by SWINE
and so I did swear
I got mud in my hair
covered in feces
I stank in the air
I went to the bar
where I'd drank by the stars
they erupted in laughter
they thought me bizarre
they told me that last night
I'd got in a bar fight,
killed 15 men
and got drunk until light
and then when I went
I fell over the fence
and landed with pigs
to each one's content
I snuggled them closely
and kissed them so slowly
they left me to be with them
covered in E Coley!
