Lyrics
I am a sea captain who sails on the sea
Here's a fine story, please listen to me
While sailing to Dingle to buy me a coat
I stumbled upon an old Dingle pot goat
He was tied to a tree in a farmer's front yard
He wanted his freedom, he was trying quite hard
The farmer who owned him did say unto me
"Take my Dingle pot goat, you can have him for free"
So I took my new friend and I boarded my ship
And headed once more on my seafaring trip
But it wasn't long after we started to go
That my fine sailing ship began to get slow
Then all of a sudden a cry and a wail
"This Dingle pot goat is eating the sail!
He's eaten our rations and most of our clothes
You can see there's a button on the end of his nose!"
My crew tried to catch him, alas they did fail
He just gave a "baa" and ate some more sail
We came to a hotel surrounded by sea
And that Dingle pot goat was a-laughing at me
We jumped and we pounced, but try as we may
That Dingle pot goat just bounded away
He said as he bounded, "I need me more treats
It's time to start eating those soft cotton sheets"
Then all of a sudden that Dingle pot goat
Had a strange tummy rumbling coming to his throat
And as that last sheet he chewed with a slurp
The Dingle pot goat gave a monstrous burp
Now the burp was so weak that my ship and my crew
Were blown back to Dingle, I tell you it's true
The Dingle pot goat I took back to the tree
And never again did he sail on the sea
