Well, me father often told me when I was just a lad:

a sailor's life is very hard, the food is always bad.

C Am* G* C
and now I've found a sailor ain't a sailor anymore.
[Chorus] (a capella)

Well, the killick of our mess, he says we had it soft,

They gave us an Aldiss Lamp, so, we could do it right,

C* N.C.
A bunting-tosser doesn't toss the bunting anymore.
[Chorus]

Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast,
C Am D7 G7
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last.

Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore,

a sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore.
