Skipper Jan Rebeck

From Shipmates (2012)

Traditional

1. Now who is the king of the fighting Dutch?

Skipper Jan Rebeck

And who do the sailors fear so much?

And it's jah, jah, leave your hammock

Jah, jah, hands on deck

Jah, jah, break your back

For Skipper Jan Rebeck

2. And who stole all the tea from China

And sold it all in North Carolina?

3. And who can furl a main topsail

All by himself in a living gale?

4. And who can drink his weight in beer

And who takes two baths every year?

5. And when he got a ship of his own

Twas brute strength kept him on the throne

(repeat verse one)
