Got a tramp steamer, my ship's called "Hal".
40 miles on the Panama Canal.
Got a cargo of sodas, they are low cal.
40 miles on the Panama Canal.
Sailing 'cross the Caribbean Sea
To the Pacific in a jiffy
Through Panama, but not on land.
I'd look silly with my ship in the sand.
Yo, Hal, try the canal,
Yo, Hal, the canal is your pal!
You can sail a cargo ship from sea to shining sea
Through the Panama Canal for a nominal fee.
You enter a lock, it's a ship corral.
40 miles on the Panama Canal.
You pay your money then get a decal.
40 miles on the Panama Canal.
You cross the locks; they number 3,
Full of water for you and me.
100 feet wide, 41 feet deep,
Water enough to drench a sheep.
High lock, up goes the ship.
Low lock, the ship takes a dip.
First they raise the water level, then lower it again.
'Cross the Panama Canal, it's really zen.
We pass the locks with good morale.
40 miles on the Panama Canal.
Thank you, Hal! 40 miles on the Panama Canal.
You're welcome, men! Wasn't that fun?
40 miles, our voyage is done.
From Colón now past Balboa,
Adios, Panama! So long! Aloha!

There once was a man, his name was Magellan.
A Portuguese skipper, the girls found him cute.
He sailed with five ships to find the East Indies
Then come back to Spain with a bounty of loot.
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, oh, happy Magellan!
Starting your journey with hardly a care!
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, strong, brave Magellan,
You'll find the East Indies, you just don't know where!
They crossed the Atlantic and spotted a country. Magellan said...
MMagellan
It's the East Indies at last!
But then someone shouted...
Magellan got cranky and chopped down the mast.
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, settle down, Magellan.
Put down that axe! There's no time to despair.
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, keep trying, Magellan,
You'll find the East Indies, you just don't know where!
A great storm arose in the mighty Pacific.
The five little ships were diminished to three.
At last, land was sighted. Magellan was happy.
But then someone shouted...
Warners:
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, cheer up, Magellan.
Check out your map and don't tear out your hair!
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, keep trying, Magellan,
You'll find the East Indies, you just don't know where!
It took them five months, but they crossed the Pacific.
They spotted a land that was dotted with palms.
Magellan proclaimed...
MMagellan
Yes! That's the East Indies!
But then someone shouted...
Hey, I think that's Guam!
Ai yi yi yi, oops, Magellan!
Your fun little journey's become a nightmare!
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, keep trying, Magellan,
You'll find the East Indies, you just don't know where!
They sailed due west to the Philippine Islands.
Magellan was pleased as the natives drew near.
But then someone shouted...
I think they're attacking!
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, farewell, Magellan!
You almost made it! It's really not fair!
Whoopi-ti-yi-yo, oh, ghost of Magellan,
The East Indies Islands were right over there!
