Fire Down Below

Fire in the foretop, fire in the main

Fire in the wilderness and fire in the chain

And it’s fire at the capstan, fire at the mast

Fire on the main deck, burning fast

And it’s fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire down below

And it’s fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire down below

Fire in the forepeak, fire down below

Fire in the forechains, the bosun didn’t blow

Fire up aloft me boys, fire all aglow

Fire in the galley, the Doc he didn’t know

And it’s fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire down below

And it’s fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire down below

Fire, fire down below

Fire, fire down below

Fire, fire down below

Fire, fire down below

And it’s fire at the capstan, fire at the mast

Fire on the main deck, burning fast

And it’s up above me boys, fire down below

Douse it in with water, boys, and let us roll and go.

And it’s fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire down below

And it’s fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire down below
