Lyrics[]

Emma: I'm the captain of a big steamboat

My sailors keep the boat afloat

I wear a jacket and a captain's hat

And my seafaring dog, his name is Jack

Wiggles: She's the captain of a big steamboat

The sailors keep the boat afloat

She wears a jacket and a captain's hat

And her seafaring dog, his name is Jack

Emma: Sometimes when I'm out at sea

The stormy weather bothers me

I put on a muffler and a hat

Then I'll cuddle my dog, Jack

Wiggles: Sometimes when she's out at sea

The stormy weather bothers she

She puts on a muffler and a hat

Then she'll cuddle my dog, Jack

(Instrumental on part 2 in D)
