Kingston Trio – Oh, Sail Away lyrics

[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]
Just a-singin', (Once again now,)
(Just a-singin',) (A-singin',)
Ooo, sail away. Ooo, sail away.

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]
Just a-singin', (Once again now,)
(Just a-singin',) (A-singin',)
Ooo, sail away. Ooo, sail away.
