The Sailor's Hornpipe / The Caucus Race

Lyrics

Oh, a sailor's life is
 The life for me
 How I love to sail o'er
 The bounding sea
 And I never, never,
 Ever do a thing about the weather
 For the weather never
 Ever does a thing for me!
 Oh, a sailor's life is the life for me
 Tiddle-ee-um pom pom
 Deedle dum dum dee...
 Forward, backward, inward, outward
 Come and join the chase!
 Nothing could be drier
 Than a jolly caucus-race.
 Backward, forward, outward, inward
 Bottom to the top,
 Never a beginning There can never be a stop
 To skipping, hopping, tripping
 Fancy free and gay,
 I started it tomorrow and will finish yesterday.
 Round and round and round we go
 And dance for evermore,
 Once we were behind
 But now we find we are
 Forward, backward, inward, outward,
 Come and join the chase!
 Nothing could be drier than a jolly caucus-race.
