Christopher Columbus - Dinah Washington

Mr. Christopher Columbus

Sailed the sea without a compass

Well, when his men began a rumpus

Up spoke Christopher Columbus

He said, «There is land somewhere

So until we get there we will not go wrong

If we sing a swing song

Since the world is round we’ll be safe and sound

'Till our goal is found we’ll just keep the rhythm bound»

Soon the crew was makin' merry

Then came a yell, let’s drink to Isabella

Bring on the rum

A music in that all the rumpus

A wise old Christopher Columbus

Soon the crew was makin' merry and Mary got mad

Then came a yell, let’s drink to Isabel

So bring on the rum

A music in that all of the rumpus

A wise old Christopher Columbus

Christopher Columbus
