Below is a Google translation of the sentences in italics (below the title):
This wonderful shanty is written by our friend Øivind Nefstad from Norway. If we heard this the first time, we already knew that on our next CD Ehrenplatz should be awarded. [Ehrenplatz is German and means 'place of honor']
Old Wooden Bars Øivind Nefstad
Dieser wunderbare Shanty wurde von unserem Freund Øivind Nefstad aus Norwegen geschrieben. Als wir ihn das erste Mal hörten, wussten wir schon, dass er auf unserer nächsten CD einen Ehrenplatz bekommen sollte.
Stamp your feet boys one more blow Round the capstan let it go Make your work lads hear a sing Give the devil one more swing
These old wooden bars gotta hold on us Never let us go These old wooden bars gotta hold on us Let us go, let us go, let us go
Well stamp your feet boys keep up the pace Forget the grin on the old man's face To hell with the cook boy let him do the walk To old Davie Jones for to have a talk These old wooden bars…
Well keep the faith boys walk the ring Agony and pain is the sweetest thing We won’t break down we won’t give in We’ll give the devil one more swing These old wooden bars…
Stamp your feet boys one more blow Round the capstan let it go Make your work lads hear a sing Give the devil one more swing These old wooden bars…
