Pride Of The Nancy Lee(original) |
I’ll tell you the tale of the Nancy Lee, |
The ship that got shipwrecked at sea |
The bravest man was Captain Brown, |
'Cause he played his ukulele as the ship went down. |
All the crew was in despair, |
Some rushed here and some rushed there, |
But the Captain sat in the Captain’s chair, |
And he played his ukulele as the ship went down. |
The Captain said to Seaman Jones: |
«You'd best put on your working clothes |
While you stand and spray your hose |
I can play me ukulele as the ship goes down.» |
The owners signalled to the crew, saying: |
«Do the best that you can do. |
We’re only insured for half-a-crown, |
We’ll be out of pocket if the ship goes down.» |
The Captain’s wife was on board ship, |
And he was very glad of it |
But she could swim and she might not drown |
So we tied her to the anchor as the ship went down. |
The crow’s nest fell and killed the crow, |
The starboard watch was two hours slow |
But the Captain sang fal-oh-de-oh-doh |
And he played his ukulele as the ship went down. |
(traducción) |
Te contaré la historia de Nancy Lee, |
El barco que naufragó en el mar |
El hombre más valiente fue el Capitán Brown, |
Porque tocó su ukelele mientras el barco se hundía. |
Toda la tripulación estaba desesperada, |
Algunos corrieron aquí y otros corrieron allá, |
Pero el Capitán se sentó en la silla del Capitán, |
Y tocó su ukelele mientras el barco se hundía. |
El capitán le dijo al marinero Jones: |
«Será mejor que te pongas tu ropa de trabajo |
Mientras te paras y rocías tu manguera |
Puedo tocar mi ukelele mientras el barco se hunde.» |
Los propietarios señalaron a la tripulación y dijeron: |
«Haz lo mejor que puedas hacer. |
Solo estamos asegurados por media corona, |
Estaremos fuera de nuestro bolsillo si el barco se hunde. |
La esposa del capitán estaba a bordo del barco, |
Y se alegró mucho |
Pero ella podía nadar y podría no ahogarse |
Así que la atamos al ancla mientras el barco se hundía. |
El nido del cuervo se cayó y mató al cuervo, |
La guardia de estribor iba dos horas atrasada |
Pero el Capitán cantó fal-oh-de-oh-doh |
Y tocó su ukelele mientras el barco se hundía. |
