Subject: Lyr Req: Shiny-O or Shiney-O
Looking for additional/other words for Shiny-O
this is what I have
Captain, captain, you are a dandy
Way, shiny-o
Captain, captain,you love your brandy
Way, shiny-o
Won't you ferry me over to Dover
Won't you ferry me over to Dover
Queenstown to Dover is a hundred miles or over X2
Captain, captain, how deep is the water
It measures one inch six feet and a quarter
Captain, captain, I love your daughter X2
Shiny-o she's the captain's daughter
for her I'd sail across this water
Hens and chickens are flying over
When she pitches, she pitches into Dover
