Lyrics from where?

The verse you gave would be at home in any chanty.

Just make up verses. (Or are you asking others to make them up?)

If I decide in favor of obscenity or profanity I request and require cleverness.

Not this time.

It’s for a memorial service/“wake” of the most defiant nature possible short of starting a fight in some nameless “dive” in memory of the departed.

I’ve a few already…

Well a dollar a day
Ain’t jack shit pay
…Layve ‘er, Johnny, layve ‘er,
Ya works all night,
And ya pumps all day,
…An’ it’s time fer us to layve ‘er.

But it’d be more than good to have a few more.
