Lyrics

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
