These are the words for the Shantey called "The Worst Old Ship" in Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag:
This is one of the Shanties available to you by default
Song Words[edit]
The worst old ship that ever did sail
Sailed out of Harwich on a windy day.
and we're Waitin’ for the day, waitin' for the day.
Waitin’ for the day that we get our pay.
She was built in Roman times.
Held together with bits of twine.
and we're Waitin' for the day, waitin’ for the day.
Waitin' for the day that we get our pay.
Nothin' in the galley, nothin’ in the hold
The skipper's turned in with a bag of gold.
and we're Waitin’ for the day, waitin' for the day.
Waitin' for the day that we get our pay.
Off Orford Ness she sprang a leak.
Hear her poor old timbers creek
and we're Waitin' for the day, waitin’ for the day.
Waitin' for the day that we get our pay.
We pumped our way round Scalby Ness,
When the wind backed round to west-Norwest
and we're Waitin’ for the day, waitin' for the day.
Waitin' for the day that we get our pay.
Into the Humber and up to town,
Pump you blighters, pump or drown.
and we're Waitin' for the day, waitin' for the day.
Waitin' for the day that we get our pay.x2
