Lyrics

Three times around went our gallant ship,
And three times around went she.
Three times around went our gallant ship,
And she sank to the bottom of the sea!


1.Oh the big ship sails on the Alley Alley Oh, [circle left]
The Alley Alley Oh, the Alley Alley Oh,
Oh the big ship sails on the Alley Alley Oh,
On the last day of September
2. Oh the captain says that we're going too slow, [circle right]
Going too slow, going too slow,
Oh the captain says that we're going too slow,
On the last day of September
3.Oh the captain says
"That will never never do, [stop and wag finger and shake head]
Never never do, never never do",
Oh the captain says "That will never never do,"
On the last day of September
4.So we sank our ship to the bottom of the sea, [sink to the floor]
The bottom of the sea, the bottom of the sea,
So we sank our ship to the bottom of the sea,
On the last day of September
5.Then we dipped our heads in the deep blue sea, [bob heads ]
The deep blue sea, the deep blue sea,
Then we dipped our heads in the deep blue sea,
On the last day of September
