Mister Christopher Columbus

Sailed the sea without a compass

When his men began a rumpus

Up spoke Christopher Columbus

There's land somewhere

'Til we get there

We will not go wrong

If we sail with a song

Since the world is round o

We'll be safe and sound o

'Til our goal is found o

We'll just keep rhythm bound o

Since the crew was making merry

Mary got up and went home

There came a yell for Isabel

And they brought on the rum and Isabel

No more mutiny no

What a time at sea

With diplomacy

Christopher made history

Mister Christopher Columbus

He used rhythm as a compass

Music ended all the rumpus

Wise old Christopher Columbus

Latch on Christy yeah uh huh yes yes yes

Well looky there

Christy's grabbed the santa maria

and he's going back

Yeah ahhh looky there

In the year 1492

Columbus sailed the ocean blue what'd I say
