This is a well know French song about a young sailor. I have kept the original French lyrics but have included verse translations below.

There was a little ship
There was a little ship
That had never sailed
That had never sailed

Refrain:
Oh eh oh eh oh eh mate
Mate sail onto the sea
Oh eh oh eh oh eh mate
Mate sail onto the sea

It began a long travel
It began a long travel
On the Mediterranean Sea
On the Mediterranean Sea

Refrain:

After five or six weeks
After five or six weeks
The food ran short
The food ran short

Refrain:

They drew straws
They drew straws
To know who would be eaten
To know who would be eaten

"hoist the main Sail"

It fell to the youngest
It fell to the youngest
So he was the one that was to be eaten
So he was the one that was to be eaten

Refrain:

So they started looking for a sauce
So they started looking for a sauce
For the poor child to be eaten with
For the poor child to be eaten with

"Ship to Starboard"

"oh holy virgin, my protector
oh holy virgin, my protector"
cried the poor wretch
cried the poor wretch

Refrain:

At that moment there was a miracle
At that moment there was a miracle
Came to pass for the child
Came to pass for the child

"Stuff the parrots"

Little fish, in their thousands
Little fish, in their thousands
Jumped into the ship
Jumped into the ship

Refrain:

They took them and fried them up
They took them and fried them up
The young cabin boy was saved
The young cabin boy was saved

" ? ? ? ? ? ? "

If you like this song
If you like this song
We'll start it all over again
We'll start it all over again

Refrain:

There was a little ship
There was a little ship
"Land ahoy"
There was a little ship
There was a little ship
"bring her alongside"


Thanks for watching...
