Lyrics

[Accordion intro] Ohhh, [Verse] Come 'round ye mates, and hear a tale, O' the ship that ran ground in a gale. So far down south, in the Pharao's land, Where the sphinx gazes out at the sand. There's a waterway what's made by man, It's the Su-ez Canal, ain't it grand. For without it, we'd sail 'round the horn, And we'd not get home for many, many a morn. [Chorus] Oh, the winds did howl And the sands did blow And the ship was stuck (nowhere to go) For six days straight She blocked the lane 'Twas not great for The global supply chain! [Accordion interlude] [Verse] Back in twenty hundred-twenty one, The Ever Given blundered on. She had no mast, nor any sail, (And I can't say that she's towed a whale.) She'd list to starboard, then to port She'd bonked a ferry in Hamburg, But her hull was long, and her holds well full, Laden low with car parts, soy, and wool. [Chorus] Oh, the winds did howl And the sands did blow And the ship was stuck (nowhere to go) For six days straight She blocked the lane 'Twas not great for The global supply chain! [Verse] One day in March, she ran aground 'Twixt bank and bank, in silt was bound. The whole lane blocked, the old man frowned, The trade backed up, worth many billion pounds. The whole lane blocked, the old man frowned, The trade backed up, worth many billion pounds. [Bridge] Hey ho, we love the ocean (We don't love being stuck.) Way hey, me tugboat hearties, Free us from that muck. [Verse] (To me!) The dredgers dredged, the tugboats hauled. The shareholders were all but mauled. But slowly, northbound, off she crawled, Trade in the Red Sea, finally, un-walled. [Chorus] Oh, the winds did howl And the sands did blow And the ship was stuck (nowhere to go) For six days straight She blocked the lane. 'Twas not great for The global supply chain! [Verse] So come, young sailors, heed my song. If you sail straight you'll not go wrong. But if you block the lanes for long, Ye better hope world trade be very strong. [Instrumental]
