Hank Thompson - Whoa Sailor Lyrics

Lyrics Whoa Sailor - Hank Thompson



Ear
Beer
[A] A pretty girl sat all alone and needed compa [E7th] ny
But when I got close, this gal arose, this is what she said to
Me
Now she said [A] whoa sailor be [D] careful what you do
In your eye there's a gleam and to me it seems your [A] just like all
The [F#] rest
With a [B7th] wolfish eye and a
Line that's sly, then a [E7th] salior's
At his [A] best.
Guy
I just got back from across the sea where there are no gals
Arie.
[A] Now let me talk to you a while I'm sure you'll see my [E7th] way
When I went to spout she turned about this is what she had to
Say
Now she said[A] whoa sailor I've [D] heard that line before
You'll look into my eyes and tell me lies and [A] tales of the seven
Seas,
But a [B7th] sailor's full of that
Kinda bull so [E7th] don't hand it to
[A] me
Heart
And oh how it hurt when you had to spout that last sad
Remark
[A] I said I think I have a drink
And I broke out six month's [E7th] pay
With a wide open eyes she breathed a sigh this time she had to
Say
Now she said [A] oh sailor boy I [D] think you've won my heart
Well she was right neat and she sure was sweet but I knew she was that
Sort.
But she's [B7th] not all to blame 'cause it's a sailor's aim to have a
Girl in every [A] port.
