***SEA SHANTY - by Shane MacGowan from the albums "Red Roses For Me" Sea Shanty - as perfomed by The Pogues
Dear Cdirty London in the pouring rain I Cwish to God I was back on the sea aFgain Though Cthat belongs to the world of never will be there was Cnever a wilder bastard than me on the Fsea
I Ccould fuck all Fthe whores in damnation me boys ThoughC they wriggled and holFlered and made a great noise TheCn I'd drink 'til IF stank and then drink plenty more And I Cwon't go down toF the sea any more ButC if I had ten Fpounds then I'd raise a loud cheer AnCd I'd toast Fall me neighbours both distant and dear AnCd I'd shoot bacFk great belly-crippling buckets of beer And a Cpox and a curse onF the people round here WouCldn't give youF the price of a half pint of beer WouCldn't give youF the price of a cup of good cheer A Cpox and Fa curse on the people round here
