Sailor Man Lyrics


Oh, so handsome, oh, so strong
Tell me stories of distant shores all night long
I shiver all over when I see your lovely tan
And I can tell by your clear blue eyes you're a sailor manOh, sailor man from Polar land
Oh, sailor man, come take my hand
Oh, sailor man, take me along
Show me the Port-au-Prince and Hong KongOh, sailor man, I sure hope you don't drown
I'd rather have you showing me Cape Town
You know your to New York, New York where we can go to bars
A strong blond handsome sailor, Norwegians call you LarsOh, sailor man from Polar land
Oh, sailor man, come take my hand
Oh, sailor man, I'd gladly die
To see the ports of Rostock and ShanghaiSailor man, oh, sailor man
Please take my hand, oh, tender sailor man

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
