Rattling Winches
Another delightfully traditional sounding song from the pen of Ken Stephens.
Rattling Winches
We’re making money with this sound
Rattle them winches oh!
Soon we’ll all be homeward bound
Chorus
Rattle them winches oh!
Rattle them winches an stamp & go
Rattle them winches oh!
Rattle them winches oh!

For Mr matey told me so
Chorus
Peter is our shantyman

Chorus

Just one more rattle and then belay
We’ve rattled this gear enough today
Chorus x 2
