Didja Ever See a Dragon Fly lyrics
by Marc Gunn
Didja ever see a dragon fly?
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
O'er the moon and across the sky?
Weigh-ho, me hearties
I tell you true, ’tis a fearsome sight
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
Can keep the fiercest up at night
Weigh-ho, me hearties
The cabin boy — by name of Ned
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
Spent the rest o' the night under his bed
Weigh-ho, me hearties
And the cook, he stole thе Cap't’s rum
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
Drank it all to make him numb
Wеigh-ho, me hearties
The mate, whose sword was always out
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
Drowned hisself in a cask o' stout
Weigh-ho, me hearties
The bosun blew his whistle loud–
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
And used the mainsail as a shroud!
Weigh-ho, me hearties
The doc, he took a scalpel sharp
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
And carved hisself an auto-harp!
Weigh-ho, me hearties
And our brave cap't–ol' Black Jack
Weigh-hey, haul-a-long-ho
He jumped o'er the side and he ain't come back!
Weigh-ho, me hearties
(Spoken: Hey, wait a minute…)
