Flagships On The Sun

Jim Pembroke

[Verse 1]
Oh in the merry olde days of yore
When flagships went to war
There'd be cannon and drum when the time had come
For the fleet to leave the shore

With the squeezebox in their ears
Sweethearts cryin' tears
They'd be off with a bang and a rang-a-dang-dang
In the merry olde days of yore

With the bagpipes playin' a tune
My bonny lies in the lagoon
They'd be off with the tide with God to provide
In the merry olde days of yore

[Accordion Solo]

[Verse 2]
With a pint of rum in their hands
Fanfare loud and grand
They'd be off in the din, great battles to win
In the merry olde days of yore

Oh, with the sea for watery graves
Britannia ruled the waves
From the Spanish Main and back again
In the merry olde days of yore

[Outro]
Oh in the merry olde days of yore
When flagships went to war
There'd be cannon and drum when the time had come
For the fleet to leave the shore
Yes, cannon and drum when the time had come
For the fleet to leave the shore
Oh, cannon and drum when the time had come
For the fleet to leave the shore
