High and Dry |
With a lady-like devotion |
She sails the bitter ocean |
If it wasn’t for lovesick sailors |
There’d be nothin' left but flotsam |
Singin' why me oh my |
Is there a better man than I I hope you find your way back home |
Before you’re lyin' high and dry |
I hope you find your way back home |
Before you die |
Her sails blow like bubbles |
While ya sip yer daily doubles |
If she wasn’t so fond of the weather |
She might give the deckhands trouble |
Singin' why me oh my |
Is there a better man than I I hope you find your way back home |
Before you’re lyin' high and dry |
I hope you find your way back home |
Before you die |
One day when I grew older |
And I found I could not hold her |
She took on a fine young skipper |
Who soon run her up on a boulder |
Singin' why me oh my |
Is there a better man than I I hope you find your way back home |
Before you’re lyin' high and dry |
I hope you find your way back home |
Before you die |
Now the pleasures of the harbor |
Don’t include a lady barber |
If it wasn’t for Long John Silver |
All of us pirates would’ve been martyrs |
Singin' why me oh my |
Is there a better man than I I hope you find your way back home |
Before you’re lyin' high and dry |
I hope you find your way back home |
Before you’re lyin' high and dry |
I hope you find your way back home |
Before you die |
