Am
G
and liv ing proof is me
Am
G
I make me a living
Am
from the shipping on the quay
G
Am
G
Or the others stuck upon the mud,
E
When ships are waiting to unload,
that's when they call to me
Am
And I am happy to oblige
to blow the Admiral team
G

G
Am
G
Am
G

And you thought that pirates
G
Am
G
never came so close to your own
Am
G
Well let me tell there's many
Am
never felt the need to roam
G
Am
G
For Lon don needs all trade
Am
to feed its population grown
G
Am
And in London town
G

is everything to see that could be shown
E
And all the trades in shipping, yes,

have lots of cash that they can spend

G
So that when the tide is low
Am
there may be help that I can lend
E
To lighten up their load a bit,
and they may call me friend
Am
G
There's other names they call me,
Am
but most only do offend
E
The Admiral's got one boat,
the Thames and Medway to defend
Am
And he can't be everywhere,
G
Am
but then that's all that he can

and we made it back before the light of
