The Sound of the Seas

by Scribbler86

A series of songs from The Sound of Music with an nautical flair.

4. So Long, Farewell

CREW

There's a sad sort of ringing

From the bells on the deck

And the whistles in the air too

And down below there a

Saucy little parrot

Is popping up to say

(squawk, squawk)

Regretfully they tell us

(squawk, squawk)

But firmly they compel us

(squawk, squawk)

To say goodbye to you!

So long, farewell, sayonara, good night

SAILOR 1

I hate to go and leave this spankin' fight!

CREW:

So long, farewell, sayonara, aloha

SAILOR 2

Aloha, aloha to buddies and fishies

CREW

So long, farewell, see ya, sayonara

SAILOR 3

I'd like to stay and have a bottle of rum, yes?

CAPTAIN

No

CREW

So long, farewell, sayonara, goodbye

SAILOR 4

I leave and heave a sigh and say aye, aye matey!

SAILOR 5

I go now to take command of the ship

SAILOR 6

I see, I sing, I skedaddle, I skip

SAILOR 7

The blue moon has risen and so must I

CREW

So long, farewell, sayonara, goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye,

FISHES IN THE SEA

Goodbye!
