            Song Lyrics 
            
 
 
 
 
 Take the wheel I hear the timbers creaking 
Take the wheel I think this ship is sinking 
Jamaica seems so far and I've been thinking 
Old billy bones has gone to sea and quit his dockside drinking. 
Check it out, check it out, check it out. 
And when I'm dead who'll fly the white bird home 
I'm not the ancient mariner your children know 
And the sea's the field these old jack tars have sown 
`cause billy bones just wants to know who'll fly the white bird home. 
Oh your majesty, your majesty 
I heard the bosun cry 
Old billy bones has washed ashore 
Upon a foreign tide.
