letra de the last shanty (quarterhead remix) - nathan evans

[verse 1]
well me father often told me when i was just a lad
a sailor’s life is very hard, the food is always bad
but now i’ve joined the navy, i’m aboard a man-o-war
and now i’ve found a sailor ain’t a sailor any more

[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
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
[verse 2]
well the k!ll!ck of our mess he says we had it soft
it wasn’t like that in his day when we were up aloft
we like our bunks and sleeping bags, but what’s a hammock for?
swinging from the deckhead, or lying on the floor?

[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up thе mast
if you see a sailing ship it might be your last
just get your civvies rеady for another run-ashore
a sailor ain’t a sailor, ain’t a sailor anymore

[verse 3]
they gave us an engine that first went up and down
then with more technology the engine went around
we know our steam and diesels but what’s a mainyard for?
a stoker ain’t a stoker with a shovel anymore

[chorus]
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
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
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
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
don’t haul on the rope, don’t climb up the mast
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
