A uniquely technical and elaborate text, from the Newcastle Journal (July 11, 1857):

Farewell and adieu to you Spanish ladies!
Farewell and adieu to you ladies of Spain!
For we've received orders for to sail from Gibraltar,
But we hope in due time for to see you again.

We cleared the Straits with both sheets a-flowing
The wind keeping aft, for St. Vincent's we lay;
We bowled along by the bluff Rock of Lisbon,
And Finisterre showed when we'd got to Biscay.

We'll rant and we'll roar like true British sailors,
We'll rant and we'll roar all on the salt seas,
Until we strike soundings in the Channel of Old England;
From Ushant to Scilly is thirty-five leagues.

We hove our ship to, with the wind at sou’-west, boys;
We hove our ship to, deep soundings to clear;
We struck ninety fathom, then filled our main topsail,
And smack through the chops of the Channel did steer.

The first land we made it was called the Dodmon,
From Ram-head it bears about west and by south;
The botttom is reg'lar on hake's teeth and gravel
And the lead is the guide when you're bound to Plymouth.

So the Start Point we passed, and the steep Bill of Portland
Swanage Bay, and back of the Island of Wight;
We sailed by Beechey, by Fairlee, and Dungeness,
And then we bore up to the South Foreland light.

Then the signal 'twas made for the grand fleet to anchor,
All in the Downs, that night for to meet;
So stand by your stoppers, let go your shank-painters,
Haul up your clew-garnets, stick out tacks and sheets.

We let go our best bower in eight fathoms water,
In eight fathoms water our anchor we dropped,
Straightway from the tier they paid out with a good will,
We veered half a cable, then bitted and stopped.

Now let every man enjoy his full bumper,
To wives and to sweethearts let us finish the bowl;
For we will be jolly, and drown melancholy:
So here's to the health of each true-hearted soul.

(I suspect this is a rewrite, but it's a good one.)

"Hakes's teeth," acc. to Oxford, refers to the "long tubular or tusk-shaped shell of a scaphopod mollusc, esp. that of a mollusc belonging to the genus Dentalium.... The appearance of these shells on the sounding-lead was formerly an aid to navigation in British waters."
