Start a silly thread - how about some songs (or bands or lyrics) with a sailing theme

In a perfect world, we would all sail in tune,
But this is reality so GIVE ME SOME ROOM!!! - Billy Bragg

Gybe Talking by the Brothers Jib
DownWind by Petula Lark

extra points for misheard lyrics or bad puns

Whilst idly browsing Amazon for some choons yesterday - I couldn't help but notice an album titled:

Captain Morgan's Revenge - by Alestorm.

Tracks titled Over the Seas, Tavern Wench, Death Before the Mast, Terror on the High Seas, Set Sail and Conquer, etc. Plus the band's name, did it for me.

I had to buy it!

While sailing with my little one, it's "The spray on my face goes splash splash splash.... The sails on the boats go flap flap flap... " to a famous public transport advertising tune.
