Buy The Captain Rum

Db      Cm

With far more booze than regiment.

Bb
For all the crew aboard.

When provisions are running short,
Bb                      Eb Bbm
And if the ship is far from port,
Cm
The Cap himself must sacrifice
        Bb              Cm
For all the crew aboard.

There's rum on the captain's table,

And rum in the captain's crew,
        F               C
So buy the captain rum.

He opens up his lighter, fair,
Eb                      Ab
And from his barrels he must prepare,

For all the crew aboard.
