Lyrics
(Kinky friedman & panama red)
My heart is on my sleeve
Do you still believe ?
Are you listenin' to the tide roll in, watchin' ships at sea ?
When I come sailin' home again will you be there for me
There for me ?
Treasure ships of yore
Grace the ocean floor
Columbus sailed for italy, columbus sailed for spain
Columbus sailed a wishin' well, columbus died in chains
Died in chains
I don't pretend to know every answer
To everything that life may ask of me
Hey, i'm popeye the sailor man
I'm popeye the sailor man
Hey, popeye the sailor man
And I sail the lonely sea eternally
My true love calls to me from far across the sea
She says, "red skies in the mornin'
Sailor take warnin'
Sail with me tonight
Sailor's delight, sailor's delight."
I don't pretend to know every answer
To everything that life may ask of me
Hey, i'm popeye the sailor man
Popeye the sailor man
Popeye the sailor man
And I sail the lonely sea eternally
She said, "popeye the sailor man
Popeye the sailor man
Oh, popeye the sailor man
Sail on home to me, come sail with me."
