Sleepy Little Sailor Lyrics


All dressed in woolen bloomers you were
A sleepy little sailor
Fighting for his dreams
Out in crashing seaShe'll put you in a corner for your
Boyish little nature
And send you off to be
With your bottom redUnder cover you wanna love her
But you won't behave
She'll make you wait for
What you craveNow on the sea you'll search forever
Lovers that you squandered
For her you'd always leave
And leave their hearts to bleedYou hear her calling
Red skies a warning
Your ship has gone ashore
That siren's lock is on your doorNow in your room you'll yearn for all her
White and yellow roses
That you've only seen

In your wildest dreamsYour suffering can't pay for all the
Gifts she'll never offer
You'd think she'd never heard
Three magic little words

Suzie Ungerleider, who writes and performs as Oh Susanna, is a Canadian alternative country singer-songwriter. She was born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia, staring at the ocean, mountains and railroad tracks through sheets of rain. She sought refuge with song under burnt-out warehouses and in darkened clubs with the promise of guitar twang and a lonesome cry. Suzie cites a wide range of jazz, blues, pop, rock and folk influences as inspirations for her musical career. Discography
Oh Susanna EP (1997)
