Shanty Man - Nathan Evans

Lyrics by：Alex Oriet/David Phelan/Traditional/Nathan Evans

Composed by：Alex Oriet/David Phelan/Traditional/Nathan Evans

Modern ships carry mighty funny gear

And away get away you shanty man

Ain't seen a halyard for many's of a year

And they got no use for a shanty man

Slick new fittings are all your style

And away get away you shanty man

And all very clever but they just ain't right

And they got no use for a shanty man

Shanty man oh shanty man

Who's got a berth for a shanty man

Sing you a song of a world gone wrong

When they got no use for a shanty man

Levers to pull and buttons to press

And away get away you shanty man

Real life sailors who need 'em less

And they got no use for a shanty man

Floating computers dressed up as a ship

And away get away you shanty man

Skippered and crewed by a microchip

And they got no use for a shanty man

Shanty man oh shanty man

Who's got a berth for a shanty man

Sing you a song of a world gone wrong

When they got no use for a shanty man

Soon they'll be sailin' by remote control

And away get away you shanty man

That'll be pleasin for the owner's soul

And they got no use for a shanty man

Send the ships from dock to dock

And away get away you shanty man

While sat upon our arses in an office block

And they got no use for a shanty man

Shanty man oh shanty man

Who's got a berth for a shanty man

Sing you a song of a world gone wrong

When they got no use for a shanty man

New fangled gear's no use to you

And away get away you shanty man

When you're off cape horn and your faces blue

And they got no use for a shanty man

Then's the time you rue the day

And away get away you shanty man

You sent your shanty man away

And they got no use for a shanty man

Shanty man oh shanty man

Who's got a berth for a shanty man

Sing you a song of a world gone wrong

When they got no use for a shanty man

A sailor's life it once was hard

And away get away you shanty man

While laid out aloft on a topsail yard

And they got no use for a shanty man

Now it don't matter if the wind blow high

And away get away you shanty man

You can take force ten with your feet still dry

And they got no use for a shanty man

Shanty man oh shanty man

Who's got a berth for a shanty man

Sing you a song of a world gone wrong

When they got no use for a shanty man

Listen at night and you might hear

And away get away you shanty man

A ghostly sound on a cool night air

And they got no use for a shanty man

Was it a ghost from a distant past

And away get away you shanty man

Or just a breeze in the radar mast

And they got no use for a shanty man

Shanty man oh shanty man

Who's got a berth for a shanty man

Sing you a song of a world gone wrong

When they got no use for a shanty man
