I Saw A Ship A-sailing Lyrics
[Chorus:]
I saw a ship a-sailing
A-sailing on the sea
And it was full of pretty things
For baby and for me
[Verse 1:]
There were sweetmeats in the cabin
And apples in the hold
The sails were made of silk
And the masts were made of gold
The four-and-twenty sailors
That stood between the decks
Were four-and-twenty white mice

With chains about their necks
The captain was a duck
With a packet on his back
And when the ship began to move
The captain cried, "Alas, alack!"
[Chorus]
