Sailors Lament Lyrics

You got a lot in common

With bottles of rum

You linger on my tongue

And always end up gone

So if I'm cursed with this old

Worn out sailors mouth

Then let me play this part my dear

Over and out

I won't lie

I'm not coming home tonight

So don't you bother

Waiting for the floodlights

There's nowhere else for me to be

But out here lost at sea

I'll Drift away

And let the waves rock me to sleep

As I count the hearts

I wore upon my wrists, like sheep

And when I wake

I hope the current washed away

Any thought I had that

You'd Possibly stay

I won't lie

I'm not coming home tonight

So don't you bother

Waiting for the floodlights

There's nowhere else for me to be

But out here lost at sea

It's high tide But I'm doing just fine

Singing shanty's

Not waiting for the landline

To pick up so That I hear your voice

No more sirens. No Sailor's Choice

If this ship goes down

I won't abandon hope

That I'll end up at shore

Somewhere across the coast

But if I lose my sea legs

Don't you be my dockhand

May Davey Jones take me in

I'll live my life with the damned

I won't lie

I'm not coming home tonight

So don't you bother

Waiting for the floodlights

There's nowhere else for me to be

But out here lost at sea

It's high tide But I'm doing just fine

Singing shanty's

Not waiting for the landline

To pick up so That I hear your voice

No more sirens. No Sailor's Choice
