Sailor's Lament

Woke up early feelin' 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 'n' jokers, too, (shame, it's a shame.)



Chorus:

Ooh, sailor man, (shame, it's a shame.)

Ooh, sailor man. (shame, it's a shame.)



Poormouth henry turned on me, (shame, it's a shame.)

Said, "boy, i'm gonna pick you clean." (shame, it's a shame.)



Chorus

Oh!



Henry said, "don't you mess that pile," (shame, it's a shame.)

Had three aces 'n' he had five. (shame, it's a shame.)



Chorus



Shame, it's a shame.

(repeat 5x)
