letra de off to sea once more - ewan maccoll

Loading...

when first i came to liverpool
i went upon a spree
me money alas i spent too fast
got drunk as drunk could be

and when my money was all gone
’twas then i wanted more
but a man must be blind to make up his mind
to go to sea once more

i spent the night with angeline
too drunk to roll in bed
my watch was new and my money too
in the mornin’ with ’em she fled

and as i roamed the streets about
the wh0res they all would roar
here comes jack rack, the young sailin’ lad
he must go to sea once morе

as i was walkin’ down the street
i met with rapper brown
i askеd for him to take me in
and he looked at me with a frown

he said “last time you was paid off
with me you jobbed no score
but i’ll take your advance and i’ll give ya’s a chance
and i’ll send you to sea once more
i hired me aboard of a whaling ship
bound for the arctic seas
where the cold winds blow through the frost and the snow
and jamaican rum would freeze

and worst and bear i’d no hard weather gear
for i’d lost all my money ashore
’twas then that i wished that i was dead
so i’d gone to sea no more

some days we’re catching whales me lads
and some days we’re catching none
with a twenty foot oar c-cked in our hands
from four o’clock in the morn

and when the shades of night come in
we rest on our weary oar
’twas then i wished that i was dead
or safe with the girls ashore

come all you bold seafarin’ men
and listen to my song
if you come off of them long trips
i’d have ya’s not go wrong

take my advice, drink no strong drink
don’t go sleeping with no wh0res
get married lads and have all night in
so you’ll go to sea no more
