SAILOR SHANTIES

The dead horse ~ Lyrics

(HALLIARDS, or PUMPING SHIP SHANTY)

1. A poor old man came riding by.
And they say so, and they hope so.
A poor old man came riding by.
Oh poor old man.

2. I said "Old man your hoss will die." (twice)

3. And if he dies I'll tan his skin. (twice)

4. And if he lives you'll ride again. (twice)

5. I thought I heard the skipper say. (twice)

6. Oh one more pull and then belay. (twice)

7. A poor old man came riding by. (twice)
