Tonart: Bb major
Verse 1
Eb
Ab
I once met a man who said he was a fan
Eb
He wanted to sing in my shanty band
Ab
But the bottom of his face looked
weird (so weird!)
There was skin on his chin that I
loathed and feared
From his crown to ear he was
most sincere
But you can't sing shanties
if you got no beard
Db
Ab
Got no beard, you've got no
Verse 2

Verse 3
Ab
I once met a girl who heard sea songs
Eb
She came to the show,
and she sang along
Ab
But the timing of the shout
was slow (so slow!)
She was graced with a face
like the morning glow
But a hollar was a blow from the
very front row said
You can't sing shanties if you
can't shout "Ho!"
Verse 4
"Ho!" you
Eb

Eb
Ab
I once met a man on a weird machine
Had wheels and a bell,
G
He was shouting from a pad of
Eb
And the wheels got caught
on his overcoat
And he fell from the pier
clawing at his throat
Ab
So you can't sing shanties if
you don't own a boat
Verse 6
Ab
a boat, you don't own a boat
Eb
You can't sing shanties if you
Ab
you don't own a boat!
Eb
Ab
You can't sing shanties if
you don't own a boat
And you can't shout "Ho!"
Verse 7
And you've got no beard
Ab
I once met a bloke on a tavern floor
He'd had ten beers,
but I had ten more
And his piggy little face
was pink (so pink!)
He tried to shout the words,
but t'were all out of sync
With a voice so bad it'll
make you think that
You can't sing shanties if you
Eb
can't hold your drink
Bb
Ab
Can't hold your drink, you can't hold
Verse 8
Ab
a drink
Eb
You can't sing shanties if you
Db
can't hold your drink
You can't hold a drink you

And you don't own a boat
And you can't shout "Ho!"

And you've got no beard

Eb
Ab
I once met a sailor all big and broad
With an eye- patch,
parrot and a long curved sword
Had a chest like a powder
keg (big chest)
But he had both shoes,
and he smelled like eggs
I expect he would look better
with a wooden peg
'Cause you can't sing
Eb
shanties if you got two legs
Db
Ab
Got two legs, you've got two
Verse 10
legs

And you've got no beard
Verse 11
Eb
Ab
Well, Anna's got no beard
And Dave, he has a bike
Bb
Ab
Robbie's father- in- law has boats,
but won't sing on the mic
And JD can't shout "Ho!" because
his wife takes much offense
