PUSSY BELOW

There’s cake in the oven
There’s cheese in the fridge
There’s bottles of whiskey
Lined up on the bridge
So come all you sailors
And hear what I know
There’s music above
And there’s pussy below

The Captain’s a fine man
And knows what to do
To make life a pleasure
For all of his crew
So haul up the anchor
Away we will go
The sky up above
And there’s pussy below

Pussy below
Pussy below
When oceans get rough
You know where to go
Just throw on a raincoat
There’s pussy below.

There’s Bombay and Persian
Exotic Burmese
Some play their whole life
While others just tease
If you stroke and pet them
How big you will grow
It’s easy to love
All the pussy below.

The Captain has contacts
In Rome and Shanghai
He sneaks kittens in
And rum on the sly
A stay in the steerage
Will banish all woe
You won’t find a dog
In the pussies below

Pussy below
Pussy below
Just fondle their fur
And they’ll make you purr
It’s catnip to sailors
The pussy below.

Now, young men at sea
Can get lonely sometimes
And if you don’t watch
They turn queerer than mimes
There’s sheep in the cabin
So give `em a throw
And if you get desp’rate
There’s pussy below

To work on a ship
Is a very hard life
The crew is your girlfriend
The captain, your wife
You might catch the big one
But better be quick;
The seamen will jump
When you grab Moby Dick

So come all ye sailors
And lovers of cats
They lap up your milk
While they chase away rats
The sea it will rock
And the wind it will blow
And so will the pussy
The pussy below

Pussy below
Pussy below
When they’re on the prowl
You’ll never say no
To loving a pussy
A pussy below.
