Sing hallelujah, hallelujah!

And you'll shoo the blues away

Cares pursue ya, hallelujah!

Gets you through the darkest day


Satan lies a-waitin'

And creatin' skies of gray

But hallelujah, hallelujah!

Helps to shoo the clouds away


I recall in times when i was small

In light and free jubilee days

In that sunny land of milk and honey

I had no complaints while i thought of saints

So i say to all who fearful are


Sing hallelujah, hallelujah!

And you'll shoo the blues away

When cares pursue ya, hallelujah!

Gets you through the darkest day


Satan lies a-waitin'

And creatin' skies of gray

But hallelujah, hallelujah!

Helps to shoo the clouds away


Up at dawn and hit the deck

Put out your chest and straighten your neck

Gotta be clean without a speck

Tonight the admiral's comin' to check


Here this! here that!

Shine your shoes and square your hat

They'll give 'ya the boot if 'ya don't salute

Hup one two!


Satan lies a-waitin'

And creatin' skies of gray

But hallelujah, sing hallelujah!

Helps to shoo the clouds away


Sing hallelujah!
