Pogues - Sea Shanty Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Dear dirty london in the pouring rain
  • I wish to God I was back on the sea again
  • Though that belongs to the world of never will be
  • There was never a wilder bastard than me on the sea
  • I could ***** all the whores in damnation me boys
  • Though they wriggled and hollered and made a great noise
  • Then Id drink till I stank and then drink plenty more
  • And I wont go down to the sea any more
  • But if I had ten pounds then Id raise a loud cheer
  • And Id toast all me neighbours both distant and dear
  • And Id shoot back great belly-crippling buckets of beer
  • And a pox and a curse on the people round here
  • Wouldnt give you me the price of a half pint of beer
  • Wouldnt give you me the price of a cup of good cheer
  • A pox and a curse on the people round here
  • A mans ambition must indeed be small
  • To write his name upon a shithouse wall
  • But before I die Ill add my regal scrawl
  • To show the world Im left with sweet ***** all
  • And when all of us bold shithouse poets do die
  • A monument grand they will raise to the sky
  • A monument made just to mark our great wit
  • A monument of solid shit now me boys
  • I met with bill james we fought over crusts
  • I called him a whore and he booted me crotch
  • Then we shared out the jack and we thought it a treat
  • The compliments pass when the quality meet
  • The compliments pass when the quality meet
  • The compliments pass when the quality meet
  • The compliments pass when the quality meet
