Lord Nelson knew the perfect way
to cure your mal-de-mer
And if you pay attention
His secret I will share

To any sea-sick sailor
I will give this advice for free
If you're feelin seasick
Sit underneath a tree.

I'm marching inland from the shore
over me shoulder I'm carryin an oar
and when someone asks me "What is that funny thing ya got?"
Then I know I'll never go to sea no more, no more
Then I know I'll never go to sea no more.....

(What was the origin of the last stanza?)
