Chicken on a Raft |
| Skipper’s in the wardroom drinking gin |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| I don’t mind knocking but I ain’t going in |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Jimmy’s laughing like a drain |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Been looking at comic cuts again |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey, chicken on a raft on a Monday morning |
| Oh what a terrible sight to see |
| The dabtoes forward and the dustmen aft |
| Sitting there picking at a chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| They gave me the middle and the forenoon too |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Now I’m pulling in the whaler’s crew |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Seagull wheeling overhead |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| I ought to be flogging in a feather bed |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey, chicken on a raft on a Monday morning |
| Oh what a terrible sight to see |
| The dabtoes forward and the dustmen aft |
| Sitting there picking at a chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| We kissed goodbye on the midnight bus |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| She didn’t cry, she didn’t fuss |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Am I the man that she loves best? |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Or am I just a cuckoo in another man’s nest? |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey, chicken on a raft on a Monday morning |
| Oh what a terrible sight to see |
| The dabtoes forward and the dustmen aft |
| Sitting there picking at a chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| An Amazon girl lives in Dumfries |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| She only has kids in twos and threes |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Her sister lives in Maryhill |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| She says she won’t but I think she will |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey, chicken on a raft on a Monday morning |
| Oh what a terrible sight to see |
| The dabtoes forward and the dustmen aft |
| Sitting there picking at a chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Well I had a little girl in Donny B |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| And did she make a fool of me |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Her heart was like a Pusser’s shower |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| From hot to cold in a quarter of an hour |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey, chicken on a raft on a Monday morning |
| Oh what a terrible sight to see |
| The dabtoes forward and the dustmen aft |
| Sitting there picking at a chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Hey-oh, chicken on a raft |
| Oy-oh, chicken on a raft |
