Animaniacs - The Panama Canal lyrics

rate me

Got a trap-steamer, my ship's called Hal<br />

Forty miles on the Panama Canal<br />

Got a cargo of sodas, they are lo-cal<br />

Forty miles on the Panama Canal<br />

<br />

Sailing 'cross the Carribean Sea<br />

Do the Pacific in a jiffy<br />

Puru, Panama but not on land<br />

I'd look silly with my ship in the sand<br />

<br />

Yo Hal, try that canal<br />

Yo Hal, the canal is your pal<br />

<br />

You can sail a cargo ship<br />

From sea to shining sea<br />

Through the Panama Canal<br />

for a nominal fee<br />

<br />

You enter a lock, it's a ship coral<br />

Forty miles on the Panama Canal<br />

You pay your money, then get a decal<br />

Forty miles on the Panama Canal<br />

<br />

You cross the locks, they number three<br />

Full of water for you and me<br />

100 feet wide, 41 feet deep<br />

Water enough to drench a sheep<br />

<br />

High lock, up goes the ship<br />

Low lock, the ship takes a dip<br />

First they raise the water level<br />

Then lower it again<br />

'Cross the Panama Canal<br />

It's real easy<br />

<br />

We pass the locks, with good moral<br />

Forty miles on the Panama Canal<br />

The crew yells out, 'Thank you, Hal'<br />

Forty Miles on the Panama Canal<br />

<br />

You're welcome, men<br />

Wasn't that fun<br />

Forty miles, our voyage is done<br />

For I'm full on now past Balboa<br />

Adios Panama, so long - aloha
