Tune:
Here we go round the mulberry bush
Sway to the music as song
is sung.
|
I saw three ships come sailing by,
Come sailing by, come sailing by.
The Pinta, Nina, and Santa Maria
To find Japan, China, or India.
Who's in the three ships sailing by,
Sailing by, sailing by?
Some hundred sailors making a fuss
And their fearless leader, Columbus.
I saw three ships sight the land,
Sight the land, sight the land.
Birds and branches gave them a clue
On October twelfth, fourteen
ninety-two. |
