Sometime in october

We sailed from england's shore

When we sailed into a raging storm

Like i never ever seen before

And all of the crew they were brave men

But the captain he was braver

And he said

"never mind the ship me boys

There's none of us here can save her"

Let her go down swim for your lives

Swim for your children swim for your wives

Let her go down let her go down

Lost in the open ocean

There was some of the crew and me

While the captain steered our wounded ship

To the bottom of an angry sea

And with his dying breath

We all heard him say

"it's just the fortune of sailor"

And he said

"never mind the ship me boys

There's none of us here can save her"

Chorus

He wondered if his shipmates

Were ready to just pray and give in

So he called their names out one by one

But there was no one else around but him

He saw the ship go down the fading light

And he knew that they could have saved her

He said

"the captain lied when the captain cried

'there's none of us here can save her' "

Chorus

Swim for your lives

Swim for your children swim for your wives

Let her go down let her go down

Swim for your lives
