[NDC] I’ll Do It Tomorrow (Sea Shanty Edition)
Nordic Discord Challenge Genre: Bluegrass Theme: Procrastination Lyrics: Woke on the deck with the sun in me eye Bottle ran dry but the rum’s sailin’ by Cap’n be shoutin’, “There’s work to be done” But I’m watchin’ the sea and I ain’t gonna run There’s ropes to be tied and the deck to be swabbed But that sounds like a mighty poor job I’ll lean on the rail with the salt in me beard And pretend that I simply just never did hear I’ll do it tomorrow, yo-ho, you’ll see Why do it now when there’s time on the sea Let the wind keep blowin’ and the ship drift slow There’s always more tide where the lazy men go Aye, I’ll do it tomorrow, let today slip away For tomorrow’s just another day Cook says the galley’s a terrible sight (A terrible sight) Bosun says fix it or walk the plank tonight (Walk the plank tonight) But the gulls be callin’ and the sky’s too wide So I’ll stay right here and enjoy the ride Treasure maps waitin’ and gold to be found But diggin’ a hole means standin’ around I’d rather sip grog and sing me a tune And maybe get started tomorrow at noon I’ll do it tomorrow, yo-ho, me mate Workin’ today just don’t sit well with fate Let the captain be yellin’, I’ll not be swayed There’s always more work for another day Aye, I’ll do it tomorrow, that’s pirate law Put it off ‘til you can’t no more Maybe one day I’ll haul me share Tie them knots and show I care But that day’s lost beyond the foam And I’m far too fond of doin’ no chore Why swab the deck today When it's still there tomorrow I’ll do it tomorrow I’ll do it tomorrow I’ll do it tomorrow Aye I’ll do it tomorrow, yo-ho, I swear Just not today, I ain’t goin’ there Let the sails hang loose and the compass spin I’ll start fresh when the next day begins Aye, I’ll do it tomorrow, same as before And tomorrow comes, I’ll delay once more Yo-ho, tomorrow Just not today
