6th Grade Chorus, here are the words to the Ghost Ship for you to make sure you have memorized! Also, spend a little time with Galop!
The Ghost Ship
I've been at sea since 32
I've laid my share of line
My leg's been crushed, me eye poked out;
Yet still I'm feeling fine
And I would leave this port once more
To ride the ocean blue
If only I had never seen
The ghost of a ship and her crew
Yo ho! Yo ho! The ghost of a ship and her crew!
2 The air was damp, the wind was dead
1 The air was damp, the wind was dead
2 No light, just dark and gray
1 No light, just dark and gray
2 I stood me watch upon the deck
1 Upon the deck
I wish I'd faced away
2 Then through the mist I saw it come
1 Through the mist I saw it come
Far from the depths of blue
My good leg froze... when I beheld...
The ghost of a ship and her crew
Yo ho! Yo ho! The ghost of a ship and her crew!
1 Her bowsprit cracked her sails in rags
2 Ooooh oooooh…
1 Hung from the silent mast
2 Ooooh oooooh…
1 The planks upon her floor decayed
2 Ooooh oooooh…
1 A shred moved on her staff
2 Ooooh oooooh…
2 The spirits drifted 'cross the deck
1 Ooooh oooooh…
2 As dead are wont to do
My soul was chilled when I beheld
The ghost of a ship and her crew! (NO YO HO HERE!!)
Away she vanished in the fog
From whence the craft had come
Then came a breeze
The sun appeared;
Her sails went full to the plumb
And though the sea was good to me
I won't return to the blue
For I saw my face upon that ship...
The ghost of a ship and her crew!
Yo ho! Yo ho! The ghost of a ship and her crew!
Yo ho! Yo ho! The ghost of a ship... and her crew!

Yo ho! Yo ho! The ghost of a ship and her crew!
