Has anyone got the lyrics to The Champion of the Seas?All I can remember is the start:
As I was walking down Park Lane a wearing of my shoes I went into the shipping office to see what was the news. The Ships Master he said to me, get on your blooming knees We'll have none of you loungers tuch us in the Champion of the Seas
And the end: I'll walk the streets of Liverpool until my feet do freeze Then I'll sign myself once more abord the Champion of the Seas
The Champion of the Seas was a 250 ft Black Ball Line clipper, weighing 2500 tons, that was abandoned off Cape Horn through leaking because of dry rot in 1877. I can find plenty about the ship, but I can't find the song lyrics at all.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
