I'm not sure who wrote it, but the DT has an entry called "MEN". Check it out, and let me know if that's the one.

Anybody know the lyrics to a song I heard in the NY North Country? The chorus goes: We're men men men It's a ship all filled with men, You'll never have to lift the seat, there's no one here but men!

Thanks, Ed

I used to have this record. All I remember is this verse:

There's men above, and men below, and men down in the galley

There's Butch! And Spike! And Buzz! And Biff!

And one guy we call Sally.

Found this floating around the web. Thought I'd better copy it before ASCAP finds out.

MEN
(Martin Mull)
(SOUNDS of the sea in background)
SAILOR: Captain, the men haven't eaten in days.
MARTIN MULL: Yes.
S: Captain, the men haven't eaten in DAYS.
MM: Yes.
S: Captain, do you understand? The MEN haven't EATEN in DAYS!
MM: Well, FORCE THEM! You've got plenty of men, haven't you?
S: Yes, sir.
MM: You have plenty of what?
S: Men, sir.
MM: WHAT!
S: MEN, SIR!
MM: WHAT!
S: MEN!
OTHER SAILOR: MEN!
ANOTHER SAILOR AND ANOTHER, ETC.: MEN! MEN! MEN! MEN! MEN! MEN!

(MUSIC in)

Men, men, men, men, men, men, men, men.
It's great to be on a ship with men and sail across the sea!
Oh, we don't know where we'll land or when. It's great to be with men!
It's great to be with men!

'Cause men can sweat and men can stink and no one seems to care-o!
THROW the dishes in the sink and clog the drain with hair-o!
Clog the drain with hair-o!

Men, men, men, it's a ship all filled with men!
So batten down the ladies' room. There's no one here but men!
Men, men, men, men, men, men, men!

There's men above. There's men below. There's men down in the galley.
There's Butch! and Buzz! and Spike! and Biff! and one guy we call Sally.
And one guy we call Sally.

Men, men, men, it's a ship all filled with men.
You'll never have to lift the seat. There's no one here but men!
Men, men, men, men, men, men, men.

We're men and friends until the end and none of us are sissies.
At night we sleep in separate beds and blow each other kissies!
And blow each other kissies!

Men, men, men, it's a ship all filled with men!
So throw your rubbers overboard. There's no one here but men!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!--
