Part 1 — TROOPSHIP CHANTY
Reading edition
The sea is green as green-pea soup And half-way down the green-o, A U-boat's lying snug and tight All bellied out with dynamite, And twenty guns between-o! And twenty guns between-o! So scrape yer hatchways clear of brine, And bawl yer jolly song-o. For if she "blows," my lads, why, then We'll blow her back to Hell again, With compliments along-o! With compliments along-o!
