lirik lagu the seadogs - crew of jones
[verse 1]
now you all know the story of purser jim
and the twist of fate what done him in
countin’ his coins with the crows one night
when the nest was struck by a bolt of light
the mast was split; in the sea he fell
but his greedy ghost climbed out of h~ll
now he walks with jones on the ocean floor
a~countin’ his coins and lookin’ for more
[chorus]
and we’ll sink, sink, sink beneath the waves
and we’ll sink, sink, sink, but we won’t stay
when you hear the rattle of the dooméd voice
the sailor has one final choice
and the call of the endless sea he must obey
[verse 2]
mad gunner jack loved k!llin’ men
he’d butcher either foe or friend
his shipmates learned you could not trust
whose blood would satiate his l~st
but pretty poor mad gunner jack
thirteen blades all in his back
and now he’s signed with davey’s crew
his fighting days are never through
[chorus]
and we’ll sink, sink, sink beneath the waves
and we’ll sink, sink, sink, but we won’t stay
when you hear the rattle of the dooméd voice
the sailor has one final choice
and the call of the endless sea he must obey
[verse 3]
old bosun john loved cards and dice
his gambling soul, it paid the price
he’d play all takers with a thrill
he always won, but not by sk!ll
five aces is the kind o’ lies
that gets a lead ball ‘tween your eyes
and now till judgment day he’ll roll
a~dicin’ davey for his soul
[chorus]
and we’ll sink, sink, sink beneath the waves
and we’ll sink, sink, sink, but we won’t stay
when you hear the rattle of the dooméd voice
the sailor has one final choice
and the call of the endless sea he must obey
[verse 4]
our old cook, tom, loved the fork and knife
’tis a dreadful deed what done his life
he’d poison the men for their coin and rum
with rotten meat and rancid chum
we tossed him o’er with his curséd bowl
and the things in the sea, they ate him whole
now he cooks the meals for the crew o’ jones
and when you’re dead, they’ll pick your bones
[chorus]
and we’ll sink, sink, sink beneath the waves
and we’ll sink, sink, sink, but we won’t stay
when you hear the rattle of the dooméd voice
the sailor has one final choice
and the call of the endless sea he must obey
[verse 5]
jones’ crimes were many, his passions few
just the cat and the lash and the rusty screw
by his crew he was hated, by his wife despised
for screams and pain were the things he prized
not one of them had not been scarred
till one dark night, he was tied and tarred
keel~hauled, poisoned, shot, and hanged
and as he was drowned, he smiled and sang:
[chorus]
sink, sink, sink beneath the waves
and we’ll sink, sink, sink, but we won’t stay
when you hear the rattle of the dooméd voice
the sailor has one final choice
and the call of the endless sea he must obey
and the call of the endless sea he must obey
and the call of the endless sea he must obey
