All Hands On Deck 1951

It happened in the Navy
they were on the briny deep.
And half the crew was workin'
so the other half could sleep.
The ship was movin' slowly
toward the Port of Singapore,
When suddenly each sailor boy
could hear the captain roar.

All hands on deck
there's a pretty little girl in sight.
All hands on deck
she's a perfect form and height.
What do we care
if the ship becomes a wreck
for we haven't seen a girl
in eighteen months.
All hands on deck.

The bosun left the tiller
and the cook he left the hash.
The sleeping men were wide awake
much quicker than a flash.
From ev'ry hold the sailors came
so they could see the shore,
'cause they were all excited
when they heard the Captain roar.

All hands on deck
there's a pretty little girl in sight.
All hands on deck
she's a perfect form and height.
What do we care
if the ship becomes a wreck
for we haven't seen a girl
in eighteen months.
All hands on deck.

All hands on deck
there's a pretty little girl in sight.
All hands on deck
she's a perfect form and height.
What do we care
if the ship becomes a wreck
for we haven't seen a girl
in eighteen months.
All hands on deck.
