A`s for the anchor that lies at our bow
B`s for the bowsprit and the jibs all lie low
C`s for the capstan we all run around
D`s for the davits to lower the boat down
(Chorus)
Merrily, merrily
So merry sail we, no mortal on earth like a sailor at sea
Heave away, haul away, the ship rolls along
Give a sailor his grog and there`s nothing goes wrong
E`s for the ensign that at our mast flew
F`s for the forecastle where lives our crew
G`s for the galley where the salt junk smells strong
And H is the halyards we hoist with a song
(Chorus)
I`s for the eyebolts, good for the feet
J`s for the jibs that stand by the lee sheet
K`s for the knighthead where the petty officer stands
L`s for the leeside, hard found by new hands
(Chorus)
M`s for the mainmast, it`s stout and it`s strong
N`s for the needle that never points wrong
O`s for the oars of our old jolly boats
And P`s for the pinnace that lively do float
(Chorus)
Q`s for the quarterdeck where our officers stand
And R`s for the rudder that keeps the ship in command
S is for the stunsells that drive her along
T`s for the topsail, to get there takes long
(Chorus)
U`s for the uniform, mostly worn aft
V`s for the vangs running from the main gap
W`s for water, we`re on a pint and a pound
And X marks the spot where old Stormy was drowned
(Chorus)
Y`s for yardarm, needs a good sailor man
Z is for Zoe, I`m her fancy man
Z`s also for zero in the cold winter time
And now we have brought all the letters in rhyme
(Chorus)
