Fire Down Below trad    

 Lyrics courtesy of www.sailorsongs.com

Fire in the galley fire in the house
Fire in the beef kid scorching the scouse
Fire fire fire down below
Fetch a bucket of water
Fire down below

Fire in the cabin fire in the hold
Fire in the strong room melting the gold
Fire fire fire down below
Fetch a bucket of water
Fire down below

Fire round the capstan fire on the mast
Fire on the main deck burning it fast.
Fire fire fire down below
Fetch a bucket of water
Fire down below

Fire in the lifeboat fire in the gig
Fire in the pig stye roasting the pig
Fire fire fire down below
Fetch a bucket of water
Fire down below

Fire in the store room spoiling the food
Fire on the orlop burning the wood.
Fire fire fire down below
Fetch a bucket of water
Fire down below

Fire on the waters fire high above
Fire in our hearts for the friends that we love
Fire fire fire down below
Fetch a bucket of water
Fire down below
