Barnacle Bill the Sailor

FRANK LUTHER, RONALD CARSON ROBINSON

Who's that knocking at my door
Who's that knocking at my door
Who's that knocking at my door
Cried the fair young maiden

It's only me from over the sea
(Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor)
I'm all lit up like a Christmas tree
(Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor)
I'll sail the seas until I croak
I'll fight and swear and drink and smoke
But I can't swim a bloody stroke
(Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor)

(Instrumental Break)

I'll come down and let you in
I'll come down and let you in
I'll come down and let you in
Cried the fair young maiden

Well, hurry before I bust in the door
(Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor)
I'll rare and tear and rant and roar
(Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor)
I'll spin you yarns and tell you lies
I'll drink your wine and eat your pies
I'll kiss your cheeks and black your eyes
(Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor)

(Instrumental Break)

He's Barnacle Bill the Sailor!
