Fire Down Below: Lyrics
As performed by Cisco Houston
Traditional
Appears on:There is fire in the lower hole There's fire down below Fire in the main well The Captain didn't know Chorus: Fire, fire, fire down below Fetch a bucket of water, girls There's fire down below There is fire in the forepeak There's fire in the main Fire in the windlass And fire in the chain Chorus There is fire in the foretop There's fire down below Fire in the chain plates The bos'un didn't know Chorus There is fire up aloft And there is fire down below Fire in the galley And the cook he didn't know Chorus
