BillR In bed with the captain's daughter (55* d) RE: In bed with the captain's daughter 27 Nov 01


When I've heard this verse sung it is almost always followed by "You ain't seen the Captain's daughter". This seems like a reasonable explanation of why this might be done. But it also just occured to me that the drunken sailor's reaction upon waking up sober enough to realize just where he is might be the intended punishment.
