It was a long winter but in the end it was spring
And all the men on the boat had a party
There were heavy nights and a lot of blood and sweat
The mate worked like a horse
He was a skinny little weirdo who was hungry for experience
But the rations were mostly water and grain
He stood at the helm all day, had bets ¥l with Skagen
About the fastest way to Capp Horn
Dekk Bord
When it was calm on the sea, but I had time off in the morning
Everyone sat down and played cards
The mate shared, the rest of us played
And the money changed hands quite quickly
Carlos was distraught while many others smiled
They said; me loppe Carlos for everything he has
And later when the verdict fell Carlos had lost everything
It was because he collected only savings
Go home to Transylvania
Forget about personal details and other trivialities
Set the table, send a telegram to Victoria
I'll be there soon
I had lost a couple of men, Carlos was the one last
It happened when we landed in Marseilles
He lost a drinking competition against The Belgian Chimpanzee
And now he doesn't sail anymore
In Hong Kong there was chaos, I went on a rampage off Laos
I never thought I would make it out alive
Then came a native came out and thought our ship was God
And dragged us out on the open sea
