Fuck it All by Emmett Doyle published on 2022-02-01T03:12:24Z A river shanty turned into a fingerstyle blues. This was sung in the galleys in the Port of Saint Paul and once during a work stoppage in protest of unsafe conditions on deck. Co-written with Dee Xaba. If you cannot find a lead, fuck it all Or the rigging that you need, fuck it all If there’s notches in the tow, and every string is bowed If the captain doesn’t know then fuck it all If she’s leaning to the bank, fuck it all A foot of water in her tank, fuck it all Why bother with the pump when the rain is gonna dump And you’re paid just like a chump, so fuck it all If you hear a crashing sound fuck it all And the barges run aground fuck it all If you’re leg’s caught in a bight and you cannot find your knife And this isn’t worth your life then fuck it all If the boss goes for a swim fuck it all We wont throw a line for him- fuck it all Our revenge for everything, we will watch him sink and sing We can dredge him out next spring- so fuck it all.
