Oh, Sail Away Songtext
John Phillips
Chorus:
Just a-singin′, (Once again now,) (Just a-singin',) (A-singin′,) Ooo, sail away. Ooo, sail away.
A man would be a fool to spend all his money and have to go to sea once more.
But when those brown skin gals start callin' you honey, you'll be a sailin′ from that shore.
Chorus
When we hit Trinidad, was there I met Marni. Don′t you know we started drinkin' rum.
But now I feel so bad. She took all my money and now I sail with the mornin′ sun.
So all ye sailor lads who want to go sportin', mark ye well what I do say.
Don′t trust them brown skin gals. They'll be your misfortune. You′ll be at sea till your dyin' day.
Chorus
