Johnny's joined a ceilidh band
Dm
They're known quite well throughout the land, The Drones

She's got herself another man, a smoothie
Bb
While the kids are in the front room watching movies

[Verse 2]
Dm
Johnny's cruising out to sea
Dm
And he believes in chastity - for some
Dm
The wealthy widows bill and coo
Dm
He fends off one or two, and then succumbs
Bb
As they're turning hard-a-port in the Bahamas
Bb
He's turning her right out of her pyjamas
F
He's turned her every which way to the rhythm of the sea
Am
He says, I can't express myself with my old lady
[Chorus]

On the rolling sea, on the rolling sea
