The Wreck Of The Nancy Lee Video (MV)

I'll tell you the tale of the "Nancy Lee"
The ship that got shipwrecked at sea
And 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

Well, 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."

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

Well the owners signalled to the crew Saying, "Do the best that you can do. We're only insured for half a crown
We'lI be out of pocket if the ship goes 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

Now 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

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

Now 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

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
