And clouds came over the sky,
And the wind it blew hard and free ;
And the waves were bold, and over-bold,
As we sailed over the sea;
Howling- for their "One, two, three !"
Howling for their "One, two, three!"
Oh, I think I can hear
It a-howling in my ear,
Howling for their "One, two, three!"
And the storm came roaring on,
Such a storm as I never did see,
And the storm it was bold, and over-bold,
And as bad as a storm could be ;
A-roaring for its "One, two, three !"
A-howling for its "One, two, three !"
Oh, I think I can hear
It a-howling in my ear,
Howling for its "One, two ; three !"
And a wave came over the deck,
As big as a wave could be,
And it took away the captain, and the mate and a man;
It had got the "One, two, three !"
It had got the "One, two, three !"
And it kept the "One, two, three !"
Oh, I think I can hear
It a-rolling in my ear,
As it went with the "One, two, three !"
No sort of fun can compare with fun of Hallowe'en,
When boys and girls, all in a craze,
Run pell-mell as though chased by bears.
There's fun in other things, but Hallowe'en best suits me.
