Who were all in wild despair
Twelve of the finest big black turf
Each man tied round his waist
Risolving to save themselves
Or die like men at least

The captain shouted rocks ahead.
Two men fell by the shock
And she dashed in a thousand pieces
Right against the Thirteenth Lock
And nearly every Monday night
Between twelve and one o'clock
The captain's ghost and Kelly smokes
