I'll try to find "Ee-lee-ay-lee-o", one to the effect that we "reefed the cable chain, threw the cargo overboard and hauled it back again," and "with the crew in the hatch, the ship struck a match", etc. That's just the chorus.... The instructive verses detail such things as "you can see I am a sailor 'cause I wear a sailor hat; six times I have been shipwrecked and found drowned."
