GUEST,Pelrad Tune Req: Captain Nipper (7) RE: Tune Req: captain nipper 12 Sep 04

On the 15th of September
And well I do remember
I nearly broke my poor old mother's heart
For I shipped with Captain Nipper
On a big four-masted clipper
Headed way down south to foreign parts.

CH: And the wind began to blow
And the ship began to roll
And a devil of a hurricane did blow-i-o
And it nearly knocked the stuffing
From the good ship Ragamuffin
And we thought to the bottom we would go.


I'm sorry to say I don't remember the rest, but when I can dig out the tape it's buried on I will post more. I have a recording of Jim Mageean and Johnny Collins singing this at Mystic in 1981 or 1982.
