Oh Captain Songtext
von Jake Xerxes Fussell

Captain, captain, captain
I′m gonna throw the landin' line
′Cause the first mate keeps me workin'
All the time
All the time

Captain, captain, captain
Let me see your rollers roll
I don't like the way the firemen
Are shovelin′ coal
Are shovelin′ coal


Johnny, Johnny, Johnny
Let your ball of water flow
In the morning they're making Bayou
Sara shore
Sara shore

The boat is steady rollin′
But she ain't a-rollin′ right
'Cause Johnny boy the fireman
Sleeps the night
Sleeps the night

Oh, captain, captain, captain
Better let me go below
If you don′t I ain't gonna ship with
You no more
You no more, mhmm
