Lyrics:

You can pass your days on the dory, boys,
You can go with the worst and the best,
But don't ever sail with old Engleman, boys,
Each trip you go may well be your last.
Don't you remember Cape Ann, boys?
Don't you remember Cape Ann?
The crazy old drunk was a loser boys
He never cared if we never came in.
Chorus
Don't you remember Cape Ann, boys
Don't you remember Cape Ann.
You'll never catch me on the trawl again
For it's surely no life for a dog or a man.
Don't you remember the Shoals, boys
Don't you remember the Shoals?
And the old man asleep at the wheel, boys
My God! It was black and cold.
Well the mate was the man with the gall, boys,
He got the old man away from the wheel;
He took him below and he locked up the hatch
And he threw all the booze o'er the rail.
