RFA Christmas Songs
The tunes for these songs should be self explanatory.
****
Jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to sail on an RFA.
****
Ho Ho Bloody Ho what a crock of sh*t,
We all work for the RFA, we’ve had enough We quit,
We do all the hard work, and Mad House steals the show,
The Navy steal our glory, Ho Ho Fu*king Ho.
****
God bless you DFMT, let nothing you dismay,
We wish you a Merry Christmas from the lads of the RFA,
Thy Sir Boats come, thy Leaf Boats go and Rover Boats are here to stay,
But your Tide boats of comfort and joy, comfort and joy, Tide boats of comfort and joy.
Tiz Christmas day on an ????? Boat and everybody’s here,
The Chief says well done lads, I’ll buy you all a beer,
Knock off at afternoon smoko and join in all the fun,
MOD Navy stick your ????? Boat right up your flaming,
Tide Boats of comfort and joy, comfort and joy, Tide boats of comfort and joy.
Songs sent in by Peter Moss formerly known as Casey as told to him by 2/O(X) Rodney Lamb on the Resurgent in 1976

Tune: Hymn What a friend I have in Jesus
Location: 1973 RFA Tideflow after watching the film 'Oh What a Lovely War'
Oh when this lousey trip is over,
then how happy I shall be,
to return unto my homeland,
and my darling unto thee.
No more captains rounds on Fridays,
no more rasing out at sea,
when this lousey trip is over,
No more seafaring for me.
Aceholes (instead of amen).
