Текст песни John Kanaka - The Longest Johns

I heard I heard the old man say
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay
Today today is a holiday
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

Tu-rai-ay oh
Tu-rai-ay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

We're bound away for Frisco Bay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay
We're bound away at the break of day
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

Tu-rai-ay oh
Tu-rai-ay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

I thought I heard the bosun say
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay
We'll work tomorrow no work today
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

Tu-rai-ay oh
Tu-rai-ay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

It's rotten meat and weevily bread
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay
In six months time you'll wish you were dead
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

Tu-rai-ay oh
Tu-rai-ay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

When we arrive in Mobile Bay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay
We'll tear the sheets and spend our pay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

Tu-rai-ay oh
Tu-rai-ay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

The skipper says before we're through
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay
You'll curse your mother for having you
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay

Tu-rai-ay oh
Tu-rai-ay
John Kanaka-naka tu-rai-ay
