Literary 5 M THE SAILOR'S LIFE I'm a sailor bold as the saying goes, I've traveled hither and yong I've gone with the tide wherever it flows, Many the sea I've slept upon. Some think a sailor's life bold and free, That his sorrows and cares are few, That's not the half as you may see, Let me tell you a few things true. He can't be beat as an early riser, His smile always greets Old Sol, If early rising makes one wiser, A sailor is wisest of all. He dogs the watch or stands the mid , His hours are long and drear, But, even so, the smile's never hid, His words and his laughs hail cheer. It's turn to this and belay that, Lay aft and prepare for a drill , All hands below to break out the matsg It's a collision, he gets his fill. Pipe sweepers , side boys , anchor wa The bos'n's mate's always at handg Work is a plenty, honors are few, Yet, the way they do it, is grand. There's coaling ship and painting ship, Holystoning and scrubbing with sandg Inspection tomorrow makes things rip They all go at the word of command These are a few things you of the land That make sailor life bold and free All 1S not said in behalf of the man Who you think lives a life of ease tchv too, JOHN J JOHANSEN 'ily f gli Nm: we XX cc - sv ca xr l 1 D I a a ' O I I Q . ss ' ga' al '-ii 5 ,' Pa e T Qm ?.,,x,.,sNi,,k g .-my ' - n - - ,
