Sailor Man — текст песни (Bobby Bare)

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...

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 glasses 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...
