Starshine Singers - Good Mates

Arrh, Jim lad, don’t be a-frettin’!
I may be rough, an’ tough,
A sea-dog through an’ through,
But I knows yer as smart as paint,
And a black-heart I ain’t!
I’m glad to hear that!
So yer know, I’ll tell yer right away:
Any strife that we may go through
I’ll be right there for you!
Why, thank you, sir!

Good mates are trusty,
True and dependable.
Good mates are trusty,
Sailin’ out to sea.
Good mates are trusty,
True and dependable.
Good mates are trusty,
Sailin’ out to sea.

Good mates, that is what they’ll be.
Good mates, sailin’ out to sea.

I may be small, I know
There’s lots I need to learn,
And perhaps if I stick with you
I’ll find out what to do!
Aye! Stick with me, Jim!
I will try to work hard every day.
Any strife that we may go through
I’ll be right there for you!
That’s my boy!

Good mates are trusty,
True and dependable.
Good mates are trusty,
Sailin’ out to sea.
Good mates are trusty,
True and dependable.
Good mates are trusty,
Sailin’ out to sea.
