Mutiny - William Elliott Whitmore

Well it’s a goddamn shame what’s going down

How we got to this I do not know

There’s a sick, sick wind that is blowin' 'round

And the captain’s got to go

About you or me, he does not give a damn

What a low-down, dirty snake

With his mind on his money and his money on his mind

Well something’s got to break

Like when the hounds start howling (when the hounds start howling)

And when there’s fiends about (when there’s fiends about)

I will stand up and shout

«I declare mutiny on this ship»

Well the captain’s been drinking below the deck

And this vessel’s headed way off course

I want to wrap my hands around his crooked neck

And throw him overboard

Send him to his Lord

Send him to his Lord

Well I don’t want to be saved

No, I just want to be free

And take back what these old Devils have taken from me

No, I don’t want to be saved

Oh I just want to be free

And take back what these old devils have taken from me

Like when the hounds start howling (when the hounds start howling)

And when there’s fiends about (when there’s fiends about)

I will stand up and shout

«I declare mutiny on this ship»

I said, «I declare mutiny on this ship»

Well the captain’s been drinking below the deck

And this vessel’s headed way off course

I want to wrap my hands around his crooked neck

And throw him overboard

Send him to his Lord

Send him to his Lord

I want to send him to back to where he came

Not to mercy, no, but to burn in flames

I said, he don’t need no water (he don’t need no water)

Well let the motherfucker burn (let the motherfucker burn)

I said, he don’t need no water (he don’t need no water)

Well let the motherfucker burn (let the motherfucker burn)

Well, burn motherfucker, burn

Well, burn motherfucker, burn
