The Day I Went to Sea

When I was one
Hold up one finger
I sucked my thumb
Suck your thumb
The day I went to sea
Make waves with hand
I climbed aboard a pirate ship
Climb invisible ladder
And the Captain said to me
Salute
“We’re going this way
Hop right
that way,
Hop left
forwards,
Hop forward
backwards,
Hop backward
Over the ocean sea
Make waves with hand
A bottle of rum
Drink from a bottle
To fill my tum
Rub your belly
And that’s the life for me!”
Take right hand and “punch” across to left

When I was two
Hold up two fingers
I tied my shoe
”Tie” your shoe
The day I went to sea
Make waves with hand
I climbed aboard a pirate ship
Climb invisible ladder
And the Captain said to me
Salute
“We’re going this way
Hop right
that way,
Hop left
forwards,
Hop forward
backwards,
Hop backward
Over the ocean sea
Make waves with hand
A bottle of rum
Drink from a bottle
To fill my tum
Rub your belly
And that’s the life for me!”
Take right hand and “punch” across to left

When I was three
Hold up three fingers
I scraped my knee
Brush your knee
The day I went to sea
Make waves with hand
I climbed aboard a pirate ship
Climb invisible ladder
And the Captain said to me
Salute
“We’re going this way
Hop right
that way,
Hop left
forwards,
Hop forward
backwards,
Hop backward
Over the ocean sea
Make waves with hand
A bottle of rum
Drink from a bottle
To fill my tum
Rub your belly
And that’s the life for me!”
Take right hand and “punch” across to left

When I was four
Hold up four fingers
I shut the door
”Shut” the door
The day I went to sea
Make waves with hand
I climbed aboard a pirate ship
Climb invisible ladder
And the Captain said to me
Salute
“We’re going this way
Hop right
that way,
Hop left
forwards,
Hop forward
backwards,
Hop backward
Over the ocean sea
Make waves with hand
A bottle of rum
Drink from a bottle
To fill my tum
Rub your belly
And that’s the life for me!”
Take right hand and “punch” across to left

More verses:

Five: I told a lie
Shake head in disappointment
Six: I picked up sticks
Pick up invisible sticks
Seven: I went to heaven
Look up and act angelic
Eight: I learned to skate
Pretend to roller skate
Nine: I drank some wine
Drink from an invisible glass
Ten: I did it again
Look tired
