Sailing Out On The Ocean

歌詞

I'm sailing out on the ocean Out on the deep blue sea If I get shot or drowned there's no one to grieve for me Yes I got a letter from Mama Yes I got a letter from Spain I got a letter from mama She told me to come home again I'm sailing out on the ocean Out on the deep blue sea If I get shot or drowned there's no one to grieve for me Yes once I had a fortune I laid it in my trunk I lost it all a gambling Last night while I lie drunk Oh son don't gamble Oh darling don't gamble no more For the times your mama's told you She's taught you like a son That drinking and gambling would finally be your end I'm sailing out on the ocean Out on the deep blue sea If I get shot or drowned there's no one to grieve for me I played cards in England Got drunk in Spain I'm going back to England to play them cards again Oh son don't gamble Oh darling don't gamble no more For the times your mama's told you She's taught you like a son That drinking and gambling would finally be your end Sailing out on the ocean Out on the deep blue sea If I get shot or drowned there's no one to grieve for me Some folks say courting is pleasure What pleasure do I seek? The only girl I ever loved She turned her back on me I'm sailing out on the ocean Out on the deep blue sea If I get shot or drowned there's no one to grieve for me I'm sailing out on the ocean I'm sailing very high If I get shot or drowned there's no one to grieve or cry
