Every Dog Has Its Day

歌詞

Well I've drunk to drown on every ocean I've been Lake Tanganyika, where the crocodiles swim Halifax, Nova Scotia to Van Diemens land Well I drank with the Sultan, down the Suez Canal Cause every dog has its day Like every woman, she gets her own way And if there's a ship that sails tonight I'll captain that too, just to be there with you Well there was old Jerry Rooney, who was mad as a mule Smelled like bologna, had a head like one too That night on the bridge, with my shovel in hand Well, he threatened to kill me, for sure he picked the wrong man Cause every dog has its day Like every woman, she gets her own way And if there's a ship that sails tonight I'll captain that too, just to be there with you Well, there was mutiny in Lagos, aboard the mean ship Skondi Ten or twelve days in prison till the bastards set me free McCloskey, you're free! Cause every dog has its day Like every woman, she gets her own way And if there's a ship that sails tonight I'll captain that too, just to be there with you Now, I love the sea and she wants me back So I leave this old harbor, with the wind at me back Goodbye mother Theresa, I hope the kids settle down I must head for the Chinas, pray to God I don't drown For every dog has its day Like every woman, she gets her own way And if there's a ship that sails tonight I'll captain that too Cause every dog has its day Like every woman, she gets her own way And if there's a ship that sails tonight I'll captain that too, too, too, just to be there with you Just to be there with you
