Sailor's Lament Sea Shanty

Gave me heart and gave 'er me soul
And on a monday morning
She left me lone with ne'er a goodbye, and without any warning

Abandoned there and unaware
That she had then departed
Of all the ways a sailor can die
The worst is broken-hearted

Offer me rum and offer me gold
Anything to keep me bed from cold
Marry me rich or marry me poor
Just wait for me ashore
(Just wait for him ashore)

Sailed me ship into the abyss
And on a Tuesday evening
Saw the clouds a'rumbling in
And all the oceans heaving

I howled around and cursed the sky
While thundering and lightning
And as the rain came tumbling down
I saw a thing o' frightening

Offer me rum and offer me gold
Anything to keep me' bed from cold
Marry me rich or marry me poor
Just wait for me ashore
(Just wait for him ashore)

There I stood, the bow of me ship
With sword in either hand
Cthulu raised his tentacles up
And pointed back to land

"Quit chasing me!" He said to me
"Get back to whence you came
If all ye want's a story to tell
Then find your lasses name"

Offer me rum and offer me gold
Anything to keep me' bed from cold
Marry me rich or marry me poor
Just wait for me ashore
(Just wait for him ashore)
