Pay Me My Money Down
- I thought I heard the captain say,
Pay me my money down
"Tomorrow is our sailing day."
Pay me my money down
Well, pay me! (pay me!) (bis)
Pay me my money down!
Pay me or go to jail!
Pay me my money down!
- Well as soon as the boat was clear of the bar
The captain knocked me with a spar
- Well I wish I was a rich man's son
I'd sit by the river and drink dark rum (mm!)
- Well I wish I was Mr. Gates
They'd bring my money down in crates
- Well forty nights, nights at sea
The captain bled every last dollar out of me
