Pay Me My Money Down

[Verse 1] I thought I heard the Captain say Pay me my money down Tomorrow is our sailing day Pay me my money down [Chorus] Oh, pay me, oh, pay me Pay me my money down Pay me or go to jail Pay me my money down [Verse 2] As soon as the boat was clear of the bar Pay me my money down The captain knocked me down with a spar Pay me my money down [Chorus] [Verse 3] If I'd been a rich man's son Pay me my money down I'd sit on the river and watch it run Pay me my money down [Chorus] [Verse 4] I wish I was Mr Gates Pay me my money down They'd haul my money in in crates Pay me my money down [Chorus] [Verse 5] Well 40 nights, nights at sea Pay me my money down Captain worked every last dollar out of me Pay me my money down [Chorus][x2]
