We served
a King and now a Queen
Many seas we’ve sailed, the ports we’ve seen
Fresh faced kids forming a crew
Under our ensign red, white and blue.
Chorus:
Years
have passed; we’re too old to sail
And our memories remain with RNA
Where you’ll find a friend you may have seen before
In the mess of a ship or on the shore.
Many memories we have stored
From barrack block to life aboard
A run ashore to see the sights
Forget the times we had, we had to fight.
Chorus:
Old sailors still remain good
friends
A bond we know will never end
From Nelsons times till future days
Britannia still will rule the waves
Britannia still will rule the waves
Chorus:
Through the RNA
Through the RNA

It
happened many years ago
It happened many years ago
In the years of 1970
Brave men who sailed in the ships at sea
Lost their beloved Pusser’s Tot
Admirals they met, the men they wept
The day they lost their tot
Tradition dies hard
The poor Jack Tar lost his Pusser’s Tot.
Chorus:
We loved that grog man
We mourn its loss
We now drink ale man
God rest the Pusser’s Tot
Around Cape Horn in barrels of oak
The brave men toasted their Queen
The loss of their tot it was no joke
Splice the Mainbrace rarely seen.
