"Marty And The Captain" lyrics

Me and the dog, went walking down the beach
And two old cats, they called on out to meet
They said "Here son, come help me with this load"
I gotta make the boat, and I'm gettin' very old

Ol' Marty and the captain, they're surely fine old friends
They been working on their boat now since who knows when

The captain started telling tales of all his time at sea
About his troubles with the law, when they were running tea
It seems they've been friends now, for many many sails
And one of them was in the hooch, the other found the bale

Ol' Marty and the captain, they're surely fine old friends
They been working on their boat now since who knows when

They sailed back into town last week, wearing that same old cap
I saw them sitting in a bar, drinking while they rapped
But now that they was getting old, maybe it was time
But then you know they laughed a bit, and drank down some old wine

Ol' Marty and the captain, they're surely fine old friends
They been working on their boat now since who knows when
Marty and the captain, they're surely fine old friends
They will probably be around 'till just about the end
