Mister Christopher columbus
|
Sailed the sea without a compass
|
When his men began a rumpus
|
Up spoke, Christopher Columbus
|
|
There is land somewhere
|
Until we get there,
|
We will not go wrong,
|
If we sing, "swing a song"
|
|
Since the world is round,
|
We'll be safe and sound
|
Til our goal is found,
|
We'll just keep rhythm bound
|
|
Soon the crew was makin merry
|
Then came a yell, "Let's drink to Isabelle,
|
Hum, bring the rum, Ho Hum"
|
|
No more mutiny,
|
What a time at sea
|
With di-plo-ma-cy
|
Christy made his-to-ry
|
|
Mister Christopher Columbus
|
He used rhythm as a compass
|
Music ended all the rumpus
|
Wise old Christopher Columbus
|
