The Captain holler hurry,going to take my time
Say,Captain holler hurry,going to take my time,
Say,he making money and I‘m try to make time,
Say, he can lose his job but I can’t lose mine
I ain’t got long to tarry, just stop by here,
I ain’t got long to tarry, just stop by here,
Boys, if you got long, you better move along.
The Captain holler hurry,going to take my time
Say,Captain holler hurry,going to take my time,
Say,he making money and I‘m try to make time.
Say,Captain holler hurry,going to take my time,

Say, he can lose his job but I can’t lose mine
I ain’t got long to tarry, just stop by here,
I ain’t got long to tarry, just stop by here,
Boys, if you got long, you better move along.
The Captain holler hurry,going to take my time
Say,Captain holler hurry,going to take my time,
Say,he making money and I‘m try to make time.
