Barnacle Bill the Sailor

Who's that knocking at my door?
Who's that knocking at my door?
Who's that knocking at my door?
Cried the fair young maiden.

It's only me from over the sea;
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.
I'm all lit up like a Christmas tree;
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.
I'll sail the sea until I croak,
I fight and swear and drink and smoke,
But I can't swim a bloomin' stroke;
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.

Are you young and handsome, sir?
Are you young and handsome, sir?
Are you young and handsome, sir?
[Cried the fair young maiden.]

I'm old and rough and dirty and tough,
[Said Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.]
I never can get drunk enough;
[I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.]
I drink my whiskey when I can,
Whiskey from an old tin can,
For whiskey is the life of man,
[I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.]

I'll come down and let you in,
I'll come down and let you in,
I'll come down and let you in,
[Cried the fair young maiden.]

Well, hurry before I bust in the door,
[I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.]
I'll rare and tear and rant and roar,
[I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.]
I'll spin you yarns and tell you lies,
I'll drink your wine and eat your pies,
I'll pinch your cheeks and black your eyes,
[I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.]

Sing me a love song low and sweet,
Sing me a love song low and sweet,
Sing me a love song low and sweet,
Said the fair young maiden.

Sixteen men on a dead man's chest
Said Barnacle Bill, the Sailor. [Line sung by the cat.]
Yo, ho, ho, and a bottle of rum,
[Sang Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.]
Oh, high jig-a-jig on the rolling sea,
And a hi and a ho, you're the gal for me,
Hoorah, me boys, for the Nancy Lee,
Sang Barnacle Bill, the Sailor. [Line sung by the couch.]

Tell me that we soon shall wed,
Tell me that we soon shall wed,
Tell me that we soon shall wed,
[Cried the fair young maiden.]

I've got me a wife in every port,
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor;
The handsome gals is what I court,
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.
With my false heart and flattering tongue,
I courts 'em all both old and young,
I courts 'em all, but marries none,
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.

When shall I see you again?
When shall I see you again?
When shall I see you again?
[Cried the fair young maiden.]

Never again, I'll come no more,
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor;
Tonight I'm sailing from this shore;
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor;
If you wait for me to come,
Sit and wait and suck on your thumb,
You'll wait until the cows come home;
I'm Barnacle Bill, the Sailor!
