Oh you should be at the bottom of the sea
Yo ho ho and a dry martini
A Nuclear life is the life for me
We’re up and atom
A sailor’s life is my ambition
Hunting, shooting and nuclear fission

Dive to the bottom, boys
And up to the top she rises
Yo ho ho and a dry martini
Yo ho ho and a dry martini
You should see the things we see
Down at the bottom in a submarine

We thought we saw a mermaid
We really couldn’t tell
Well she had the tail of a fish, my boys
And the head of a fish as well
Yo ho, oh up she rises
Way hey and up she rises
You should see the things we see
Down at the bottom in a submarine

The crew is always quarrelling
It’s bound to be that way
Cos in a nuclear submarine
We fall out every day
Yo ho ho and a dry martini
Yo ho ho and a dry martini
You should see the things we see
Down at the bottom in a submarine
