Verse 1
Bb
Eb
I once met a man who said he was a fan
weird (so weird!)
There was skin on his chin that I

most sincere

if you got no beard

was slow (so slow!)
She was graced with a face
like the morning glow
But a hollar was a blow from the
very front row said
You can't sing shanties if you
can't shout "Ho!"

And you've got no beard

I once met a man on a weird machine
Had wheels and a bell,

And he fell from the pier

You can't sing shanties if
you don't own a boat
And you can't shout "Ho!"
Verse 7
And you've got no beard
He'd had ten beers,
but I had ten more
And his piggy little face
was pink (so pink!)
He tried to shout the words,
but t'were all out of sync
With a voice so bad it'll
make you think that
You can't sing shanties if you

And you don't own a boat
And you can't shout "Ho!"

Bb
Eb
I once met a sailor all big and broad
With an eye- patch,
parrot and a long curved sword
Had a chest like a powder
keg (big chest)
But he had both shoes,
and he smelled like eggs
I expect he would look better
with a wooden peg
'Cause you can't sing
