From Nine Years a Sailor by Charles Nordhoff (Cincinnati: Moore, Wilstach & Baldwin, 1857), page 42:

Lift him up and carry him along.
  Fire, maringo, fire away.
Put him down where he belongs.
  Fire, maringo, fire away.
Ease him down and let him lay.
  Fire, maringo, fire away.
Screw him in, and there he'll stay.
  Fire, maringo, fire away.
Stow him in his hole below.
  Fire, maringo, fire away.
Say he must, and then he'll go.
  Fire, maringo, fire away.
