Senior Service - 2010 Remastered Version
Sally's in the alley and Nancy's on the game Emily is pregnant and wondering who to blame We raise our port and lemon and toast a reply That the Senior Service satisfy
See the bold man of war steaming into port Guns fully primed, the 24 pounder sort And down on the deck for a full broadside Back on the high seas with the rising tide
Here's a little steamship chugging up the channel Small smoke stack and a red smoking funnel He brings the girls presents of stockings and tights Comes regular as clockwork every Tuesday night
Here come the sailor boys, Matthew, Luke and John Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I like 'em with tattoos, I like 'em young and strong Here come the sailor boys a-rousting up the town Their rigging is up but their sails are down
Here's a skipper of a clipper with a broken bowsprit Heading for a dry dock and a new re-fit There's an oil tanker of the modern kind A thousand foot length of throbbing steam turbine
Here come the sailor boys, George, John and Paul I like 'em lithe and lisson, I like 'em slim and tall Here come the sailor boys whistling on the quay Blue Peter up the mast where all the girls can see
