Christopher Columbus

Mister Christopher columbus

Sailed the sea without a compass

When his men began a rumpus

Up spoke, Christopher Columbus



There is land somewhere

Until we get there,

We will not go wrong,

If we sing, "swing a song"



Since the world is round,

We'll be safe and sound

Til our goal is found,

We'll just keep rhythm bound



Soon the crew was makin merry

Then came a yell, "Let's drink to Isabelle,

Hum, bring the rum, Ho Hum"



No more mutiny,

What a time at sea

With di-plo-ma-cy

Christy made his-to-ry



Mister Christopher Columbus

He used rhythm as a compass

Music ended all the rumpus

Wise old Christopher Columbus
