"Sailor's Lament" lyrics
"Sailor's Lament"
Woke up early feeling light (Shame, it's a shame)
Somebody got to me last night (Shame, it's a shame)
Sat down for a friendly duel (Shame, it's a shame)
With one-eyed jacks and jokers, too (Shame, it's a shame)
Ooh, sailor man (Shame, it's a shame)
Ooh, sailor man (Shame, it's a shame)
Poor-mouth Henry turned on me (Shame, it's a shame)
Said, "Boy, I'm gonna pick you clean." (Shame, it's a shame)
Ooh, sailor man (Shame, it's a shame)
Ooh, sailor man (Shame, it's a shame)
Oh!
Henry said, "Don't you mess that pile" (Shame, it's a shame)
Had three aces and he had five (Shame, it's a shame)
Ooh, sailor man (Shame, it's a shame)
Ooh, sailor man (Shame, it's a shame)
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame

I want to give
I've been a miner for a heart of gold

Keep me searching for a heart...
Cat Stevens - "The Wind" I listen to the wind
To the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up, well, I think
Only God really knows

No never,...
