When he was a Cboy he wanted to pE7lay Amdown by the sF/Cea
At age thirtCeen everyday after sE7chool Amhe would always F/Csail around the lake
CAll the people would stand and stare as he saE7iled around with precision and care With his Cbi-corner hat and the way he would stand he lE7ooked just like a Navy man AmAll the townsfolk would gather and saF/Cy, and sing away
CCaptain Albert AleF/Cxander He'll be a bGrave seafarer someF/Cday But that CCaptain Albert AF/Clexander GHe'll go down in the F/Cwaves
By age twenty four he had left the shore and was sailing for the Queen On a dark starry night Albert awoke to the sound of his Captain screaming as he was drowned The Navy crew was taking a lick pirates had invaded the ship But Albert with one aimed harpoon ignited their rum with a spark and soon flames drove the pirates away the Navy sang Captain Albert Alexander Saved his crew from pirate slaughter But that Captain Albert Alexander He'll go down in the water Now everyone dance Dance. Dance. Twenty some odd years later On his ship The Sea Slater He sailed into a mass of blubber Gazing up to the sky stood a large walrus that was a hundred stories high, it meant no harm The walrus was in a great deal of pain It suffered from a tusk with tooth decay Albert threw his anchor 'round it's tusk with a little bit of pulling it was out by dusk The walrus thanked Albert and sang, as he sailed away Captain Albert Alexander Friend to sea urchin and me But that Captain Albert Alexander He'll go down in the sea
At a rE7ipe old age lightning Amstruck from the sky and sE7plit Albert's vessel inAm two One hE7undred men fleAmd for their lives on raE7fts across the oceanAm blue
AmAlbert stood at the sF/Ctern of his ship A gAmiant octopus had F/Chim in it's grip A vAmortex of spiraling dF/Ceath below ripped andAm sharks and electric eels aF/Cll made the trip to see AmAlbert Csink to the bottom of the F/Csea
AmJust before he went F/Cdown Amhe called out to hisF/C crew AmIt's obvious that my F/Ctime has come I'll lAmet this ending eF/Cnsue I've lAmed an exciting nautical lF/Cife it would seem and there's Amno better end than a F/Cdeath by the sea His crew sang
Captain Albert Alexander He went down in the sea But that Captain Albert Alexander He'll go down in history That Captain Albert Alexander He went down in the sea -End- Any question, comments or concerns, shoot me an email at dreaton72@gmail.com
