Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
-An original sea shanty by Skylar Bixby
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
Get in the bilges and scrub-a-dee-day
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
More we work, the more we’ll play
Tomer is fixin’ a meal for the crew
Down in the galley with Calli and Goo
The divers are singing a rescuin’ sing
Amanda’s no more, she was down for too long
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
Don’t get a whiff of the water all grey
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
Going down deep into Argo today
Get all your brushes and dirtiest shirt
We’re goin’ a-huntin’ for grim and for dirt
Turn on the tunes, open covers, and then
We’ll take it all out, put it back in again
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
Everyone tired from workin’ away
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
Work overtime but we don’t get no pay
Way, hey, it’s day eighty-eight
Write all your letters a-fore it’s too late
Way, hey, it’s day eighty-eight
Sun is a-blazing, you gotta hydrate
Jump in the water Caribbean blue
Up in the air at the top o’ the boom
Climbing the lines to the tippity top
Takin’ a leap with a flip and drop
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
Now we’re all clean and the feelin’ is great
Way, hey, it’s messy B-A
Here in Antigua we wish we could stay
Way, hey, we’re almost done
Down to the last we’re having our fun
Way, hey, we’re almost done
All together we’re having a ton
Oh, there’s much more to Argo
Than you’ll ever knooooooow
But tomorrow it’s off to the harbour we go
