Sailor's Lament

Woke up early feelin' light, (shame, it's a shame.) Somebody got to me last night, (shame, it's a shame.) Sat down for a friendly duel, (shame, it's a shame.) With one-eyed jacks 'n' jokers, too, (shame, it's a shame.) [Chorus:] Ooh, sailor man, (shame, it's a shame.) Ooh, sailor man. (shame, it's a shame.) Poormouth Henry turned on me, (shame, it's a shame.) Said, "boy, I'm gonna pick you clean." (shame, it's a shame.) [Chorus:] Oh! Henry said, "don't you mess that pile," (shame, it's a shame.) Had three aces 'n' he had five. (shame, it's a shame.) [Chorus:] Shame, it's a shame. (repeat 5x) --- Sailor's Lament - Creedence Clearwater Revival
