We set off across the Baltic sea aboard a schooner called Debris
Our captain he did say to me: We're sailing ´round the world.
The Tallinn girls were mighty nice, the beer they sold was half the price
We didn't drink it once, but twice and afterwards we hurled.
Whoa-ho! Sailing ´round the world! I don't think you will see us for a while.
Whoa-ho! Sailing ´round the world! Before we go just let me see your smile
The Visby nights were warm and fair. A fine place for a millionaire
They have no Kossuvissy there. An Absolut disgrace
I saw this girl down by the sea, her dearest wish was to be free
The king of Sweden said to me: "Get off me daughter's face!"
Whoa-ho! Sailing ´round the world! I don't think you will see us for a while.
Whoa-ho! Sailing ´round the world! Before we go just let me see your smile
Rostock did not treat us well, the Ossies wished us all to hell
We made a blunder trying to sell them well-worn pairs of jeans.
A lady offered me a kiss, she promised some unearthly bliss,
more of a mister than a miss, she was a king of all the queens.
Whoa-ho! Sailing ´round the world! I don't think you will see us for a while.
Whoa-ho! Sailing ´round the world! Before we go just let me see your smile
The Channel drove us to the brink We thought our ship would surely sink
The captain nearly spilled his drink. It really was that rough.
The world's smaller than it used to be. We've seen all there is to see
We're sailing back to Helsinki Having had enough.
