"Sawbone's Stew" lyrics
Now listen to me lads, cause dreadful news I bring
See me grizzled parrot, he died from a broken wing
He didn't survive my medical care
But listen lads, have no fear
'Cause as a stroke of luck, in our rig got stuck
An albatross, as big as you!
So I broke it's neck
And I chopped off it's peck
Now meat is back on the menu!
Sawbone's stew for our crew
A touch of curry for you
Everlasting long, like this here song
It makes you fat and strong
Don't mind the chunks, they fill your trunks
So gather around your bunks
Sawbone's stew for our crew
Now meat is back on the menu!
Hear me now all hands, got bad, bad news for you!
Our trusty little swabboy, he died of a common flu
He didn't survive my medical care
But listen lads, have no fear
'Cause as a stroke of luck, in our net got stuck
A swordfish, big and blue
So I took out it's gut
And I chopped it all up
Now meat is back on the menu!
Sawbone's stew for our crew
A touch of curry for you
Everlasting long, like this here song
It makes you fat and strong
Don't mind the chunks, they fill your trunks
So gather around your bunks
Sawbone's stew for our crew
Now meat is back on the menu!
I have some terrible news, so hold on to your coat
Our chubby little deckhand Joe, died from a sore throat
He didn't survive my medical care
But listen lads, have no fear
'Cause as a stroke of luck, in our scuppers got stuck
A really fat seal it's true!
So I took out it's gut
And I chopped it all up
Now meat is back on the menu!
Sawbone's stew for our crew
A touch of curry for you
Everlasting long, like this here song
It makes you fat and strong
Don't mind the chunks, they fill your trunks
So gather around your bunks
Sawbone's stew for our crew
Now meat is back on the menu!
Horrible, horrible news, so bear with me please
The over-crowded prison quarters was raged by a strange disease
They didn't survive my medical care
But listen lads, have no fear
As a stroke of luck, in our anchor got stuck
A great blue whale, it's true!
So I took out it's gut
And I minced it all up
Now meat is back on the menu!
Sawbone's stew for our crew
A touch of curry for you
Everlasting long, like this here song
It makes you fat and strong
Don't mind the chunks, they fill your trunks
So gather around your bunks
Sawbone's stew for our crew
Now meat is back on the menu!
Meat, meat, meat, meat!
Sawbone's stew for our crew
A touch of curry for you
Everlasting long, like this here song
It makes you fat and strong
Don't mind the chunks, they fill your trunks
So gather around your bunks
Sawbone's stew for our crew
Now meat is back on the menu!
Meat, meat, meat!
See me grizzled parrot, he died from a broken wing
He didn't survive my medical care
But listen lads, have no fear
'Cause as a stroke of luck, in our rig got stuck

And I chopped off it's peck
Now meat is back on the menu!
Sawbone's stew for our crew
