I Saw a Ship A-Sailing lyrics
[** Disc 2:]
Well I saw a ship a-sailing*
It was sailing on the sea
It was full of pretty things
For baby and for me
There were sweetmeats in the cabin
There were apples in the hold
The sails were made of silk
And the masts were made of gold
I saw a ship a-sailing
It was sailing on the sea
It was full of pretty things
For baby and for me
The four-and-twenty sailors
That stood between the decks
Were four-and-twenty white mice
With chains about their necks
And the captain was a yellow duck
With a packet on his back
And when the ship began to move
The captain cried, "Quack, quack!"
I saw a ship a-sailing
It was sailing on the sea
It was full of pretty things
For baby and for me
