Lyrics

When first I landed in Liverpool I went upon a spree Me money alas I spent too fast Got drunk as drunk could be And when my money was all gone It was then I wanted more But a man must be blind to make up his mind To go to sea once more Once more,once more Go to sea once more But a man must be blind to make up his mind To go to sea once more I spent the night with Angeline Too drunk to roll in bed My watch was new and my money too In the morning with them she fled And as I walked the streets about The whores they all would roar Here comes Jack Rack, the young sailing' lad He must go to sea once more Once more,once more Go to sea once more Here comes Jack Rack, the young sailing' lad He must go to sea once more And As I walk the street about I met with Rapper Brown I asked him for to take me on And he looked at me with a frown He said "Last time you was paid off With me you jobbed no score But I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance And I'll send you to sea once more Once more,once more Send you to sea once more I'll give you a chance and I'll take your advance And I'll send you to sea once more See he shipped me onboard of a whaling ship Bound for the Artic seas And the cold winds blow through the frost and snow And Jamaican rum would freeze But worst bear I'd no weather gear For I spent all my money ashore It was then that I wished that I was dead I'd go to sea no more No more,no more Go to sea no more It was then that I wished that I was dead I'd go to sea no more So Come all you bold seafarin' men You listen to my song When you come off the long trips I have you not go wrong Take my advice, drink no strong drink Don't go sleeping with no whores Get married instead,spin all night in bed And go to sea no more No more,no more Go to sea no more Get married instead,spin all night in bed And go to sea no more No more,no more No more,no more No more,more No more,go to sea no more Get married instead,spin all night in bed When you get off,you go Jense And how do I get up Drink no strong drink for any mistress Don't go sleeping with no whores No more,no more No more,I go to sea no more No more,no Nah nah nah Nah nah nah Nah nah nah La la la La la la
