The Captain And His Men (01--07-41) |
Here comes the Captain and his men |
Brave little soldiers under ten |
Dishpans, broomsticks all in view |
Here comes the Captain and his crew! |
See that commander, how he struts |
Followed by the neighbors' barking mutts |
What a commotion, biff, boom, bang! |
Here comes the Captain and his gang! |
The first in line is Private Brown |
Cute little patches fallin' down |
Tramp, tramp, tramp as they go along |
Tramp, tramp, tramp, there must be somethin' wrong! |
Here comes the Captain and his men |
Followed by his hungry men |
The meals are served and the prayers are said |
There goes the Captain off to bed! |
Ice cream is his favorite dish |
He breaks a chicken bone and he makes a wish |
Ice cream is his favorite dish |
But how he really goes for fish! |
Bump-ditty-ump-doo-ee, went the Captain |
Bump-ditty-ump-doo-ee, went the Captain |
Bump-ditty-ump-doo-ee, went the Captain |
There goes the Captain off to bed |
Bump-ditty-ump-doo-ee, went the Captain |
Now I lay me down to sleep |
A bag of peanuts at my feet |
If I should die before I wake |
You know I died with a tummy-ache |
There goes the Captain off to bed |
There goes the Captain off to bed! |
