Bobby Bare - Sailor Man lyrics

In a pub Britanny I had me a drink or three I can vaguely recall a pretty girl was standin' there Ran her hand through my hair took me off for some air I hope we had a good time for I woke without even a dime. I'm a sailor that's all that I am, I've been in many a land Had a million girls but never have the urge to stay I was born to be on the rollin' sea That's where I'll be a livin' and I'll be a dyin' someday. Well, I copped me a ship once more that was bound for Singapore I got in a card game that lasted for thirty some days I made my shipmates sad I took all they had I taught those rosy cheek lads they don't be underratin' ol' Dad. I'm a sailor that's all that I am, I've been in many a land Had a million girls but never have the urge to stay I was born to be on the rollin' sea That's where I'll be a livin' and I'll be a dyin' someday. Three more days and we'll be in port, we'll have twenty-four hours of sport We'll spend our hard earned money as fast as we can Lift the gla**es high and tell the pretty girls lies And then we'll run for the harbor that's the life of a sailor man. I'm a sailor that's all that I am, I've been in many a land Had a million girls but never have the urge to stay I was born to be on the rollin' sea That's where I'll be a livin' and I'll be a dyin' someday...
