There is a half verse missing!!!!
" So put on your Black Ball cheeser
and your canvas jacket blue
and we'll roll right down to Rio
by way of Timbucktoo
but only in our dreams, of course
we have better things to do
like being Shanty men whov'e never been to sea"

Micca-

Where does that missing half verse fit in? Is it before the last chorus?

Cheerily,
Charley Noble

Yes Charlie, right before the last chorus, after thr "beer instead of tea" and FWIW it was not a keyboard slip that left it out, it was actually written some time after the rest of the song was completed and I noticed we were 1/2 a verse short!!!
