The Dreadnoughts Lyrics

"Shallow Brown"

Well I'm going for to leave you
Shallow, oh, shallow brown
Yes, I'm going for to leave you
Shallow, oh, shallow brown

I'm bound away for St George's
Shallow, oh, shallow brown
I'm bound away for St George's
Shallow, oh, shallow brown

Shipped on board a yankee whaler
Shallow, oh, shallow brown
Shipped on board a yankee whaler
Shallow, oh, shallow brown

Now the master's gonna sell me
Shallow, oh, shallow brown
Yes, my master's gonna sell me
Shallow, oh, shallow brown

Sell me for a Yankee dollar
Shallow, oh, shallow brown
Sell me for a Yankee dollar
Shallow, oh, shallow brown

Now I'm going for to leave you
Shallow, oh, shallow brown
Yes, I'm going for to leave you
Shallow, oh, shallow brown
