Well me father often told me when I was just a lad
A sailor's life is very hard, the food is always bad
But now I've joined the navy, I'm aboard a man-o-war
And now I've found a sailor ain't a sailor any more
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
Well the killick of our mess he says we had it soft
It wasn't like that in his day when we were up aloft
We like our bunks and sleeping bags, but what's a hammock for?
Swinging from the deckhead, or lying on the floor?
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
They gave us an engine that first went up and down
Then with more technology the engine went around
We know our steam and diesels but what's a mainyard for?
A stoker ain't a stoker with a shovel anymore
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
Two cans of beer a day and that's your bleeding lot
And now we've got an extra one because they stopped The Tot
So we'll put on our civvy-clothes find a pub ashore
A sailor's just a sailor just like he was before
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore

I got the crew of my submarine to sing this with me when we all lined up to haul the seabags off the boat during crew turnover. The tempo was a bit slower than this version, but it matched the pace of throwing seabags from person to person. It turns out sea chanteys are really good at synchronizing a group of people working together!

I started working at a marina last year, following in the footsteps of my family before me after I couldnāt take working in a ānormalā office job anymoreā¦. Itās the most stressful job Iāve ever had but I wouldnāt trade it for the world.
This song and Nathanās others bring a huge smile to my face and tears to my eyes. I love the maritime world and Iām so happy these songs have hopefully re-ignited a love for the sea and sea-faring that has become lost in popular culture.

The message of this song is pretty nice. The whole "the more things change, the more they stay the same" kind of thing.

Nathan, you're the best! I love your voice since I've heard "The Wellerman" for the first time - keep going!

Your Sea Shanties triggered memories and feelings from a former life in me. A lifestyle I loved and people I lost.
Thanks to you, I can let it go now.

We need more of this. Makes me feel happy and carefree. Thanks, Nathan for making me happy.

The song is absolutely amazing! And the fact that he carries it with only a simple thump as a "music" is just awesome!

My favorite thing about your music is that you don't loose your accent while singing. English isn't even my native tongue however to me the Scottish accent will forever be the best accent to have in all of the world.

Lyrics
Well me father often told me when I was just a lad
A sailor's life is very hard, the food is always bad
But now I've joined the navy, I'm aboard a man-o-war
And now I've found a sailor ain't a sailor any more
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
Well the killick of our mess he says we had it soft
It wasn't like that in his day when we were up aloft
We like our bunks and sleeping bags, but what's a hammock for?
Swinging from the deckhead, or lying on the floor?
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
They gave us an engine that first went up and down
Then with more technology the engine went around
We know our steam and diesels but what's a mainyard for?
A stoker ain't a stoker with a shovel anymore
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
They gave us an Aldiss Lamp so we could do it right
They gave us a radio, we signaled day and night
We know our codes and cyphers but what's a sema for?
A bunting-tosser doesn't toss the bunting anymore
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
Two cans of beer a day and that's your bleeding lot
And now we've got an extra one because they stopped The Tot
So we'll put on our civvy-clothes find a pub ashore
A sailor's just a sailor just like he was before
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
Don't haul on the rope, don't climb up the mast
If you see a sailing ship it might be your last
Just get your civvies ready for another run-ashore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
A sailor ain't a sailor, ain't a sailor anymore
