Barnacle Bill The Sailor |
| Who’s that knocking at my door? |
| Who’s that knocking at my door? |
| Who’s that knocking at my door? |
| Cried the fair young maiden |
| It’s only me from over the sea |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| I’m all dressed up like a Christmas tree |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| I’ll sail the sea until I crock |
| I’ll fight and swear and chew and smoke |
| But I can’t swim a single stroke |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| Are you young and handsome, sir? |
| (Of course) |
| Are you young and handsome, sir? |
| (Certainly) |
| Are you young and handsome, sir? |
| Cried the fair young maiden |
| I’m old and rough and mean and tough' |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| I never can get rough enough |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| Why, I can whip a dozen men |
| And my age must be a hundred and ten |
| And now I’m starting all over again |
| So let me in baby, open the door |
| I’m ain’t gonna wait long |
| I’ll come down and let you in (please do) |
| I’ll come down and let you in (Hurry, babe) |
| I’ll come down and let you in |
| Cried the fair young maiden |
| Well hurry before I bust in the door |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| I’ll rear and tear and rant and roar |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| You’ll spin me yarns and tell me lies |
| I’ll drink your coffee and eat your pies |
| You’ll kiss my cheeks |
| [Louis Prima |
| I’ll black your eyes |
| Said Barnacle Bill the Sailor |
| Barnacle Bill, that Sailorman! |
