Sailor (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Underneath a silver moon, the ship is like a ghost,
She’s been out there for a week, just waiting for the wind to blow,
But now she’s off and running, and there’s nothing i can do,
‘cos i am just a prisoner here until this war is through,
And i’m singing,

Sailor, can you hear me,
Sailor, hear my call,
Sailor, take me with you,
Sailor, take me home…

Yesterday i saw a sea bird wheeling light and low,
Then she sailed off to the west
Like she was telling me the way to go,
If i had her wings my love i’d be with you tonight,
But my last hope has gone, it’s drifting out of sight,
Wait for me,

Oh sailor, take me to her,
Sailor, take me home…

To feel the wind, to see the sky,
To hear the waves breaking on the shore again,
To be with you, to lie with you,
To hear your voice echo through the hills again,
Oh my darling wait for me, ‘cos i will be there,
When it is over, when it is over,
Yes i will return one day,

Sailor, take me to her,
Oh sailor, take me home,
Sailor, can you hear me,
Sailor, hear my call,
Sailor, sailor…

Sailor

Go up to the bar, sailor
And have another beer
Come here
I like beer
And you
(you guys are doing the wrong rhythm)

You ain’t gonna get me honey no way
Tearing down the highway in the pouring rain
Escaping from my wedding day
I heard the bells ringing in the local church
The ceremony’s nearly under way
Telegrams came and the cheap champagne
Was driving everybody out of their brains
But i convinced my best friends i lost my nerve
And i pleaded i was being framed

"sailor show me which way to go"
I screamed out loud
"sailor show me which way to go"

Such a deadly silence
Due to my defiance
The wedding ground to a halt
Said i changed my mind
Ain’t no use in your trying
So her brother punched me in the throat
Her mother got hysterical
The bitch was cynical
Father’s in the corner drunk
Picking myself off the floor
I ran to the door
Damned if i was skippin’ on my way

"sailor show me which way to go"
You should have heard the noise
Said "sailor show me which way to go"

So keep clean girlie
Find a man that’s truly
Gonna love you from dusk till dawn
Keep your front door key
Don’t give him up for me
‘cause tomorrow i may be gone
You see, your wouldbe keepers
( ) all night creepin’
Nobody gonna change in there
Who thinks a marriage life should be like a dog’s life
So let’s renew it when the year runs out

Sailor show me which way to go
Sailor show me which way to go

She had a belly full of lust but she had no bust

If I owed you better days in your mind
You’d see that better days were behind
You should know it’s conscience time again

Sailor
You’re one time a minute,
one time a minute
Oh Sailor

You’ll feel better
Stand on your own
You’ll feel better
but you’re going to be alone
You should know it’s conscience time again

Find a way for me now

You’ll feel better
Stand on your own
You’ll see better
but you’re going to be alone
You should know it’s conscience time again

Sailor
You’re one time a minute,
one time a minute
Oh Sailor

Met an old man on the street,
A dirty hat laying at his feet,
I looked and saw adventure in his eyes,
Singing them songs from yesterday,
From over the hills and far away,
Lord that old man hypnotized.

I went on in to my nine-to-five,
Hoping i could stay alive,
I knew that something in my life was wrong,
All night long i could not sleep,
The trouble here was buried deep,
I couldn’t help but hear the old man’s song.

I’m rolling down the highway,
I fly the friendly skies,
I’m just a hobo,
I’m on the railroad tracks tonight,
I’m dancing through the desert,
I see the city nights,
I’m just a sailor on the sea of life.

The feeling swept right over me,
I left my home and my security,
I finally found a place where i belong,
Back out here on the road again,
Going back where i have never been,
Now i’m finally free to sing my song.

I’m rolling down the highway,
I fly the friendly skies,
I’m just a hobo,
I’m on the railroad tracks tonight,
I’m dancing through the desert,
I see the city nights,
I’m just a sailor on the sea of life,
I’m just a sailor on the sea of life.
