The Boy Who Sailed Around The World Lyrics

The Boy Who Sailed Around The World lyrics

I know a boy who sailed around the world

started off with his cat

he fell in love with a girl

now what do you think of that?

they visited many lands

madagascar, tonga, and france

but now he lives all alone

in a rusty old houseboat



and there floats

out in the san pablo bay

when he goes, I won't know

but she'll write him every day

today



today he's fishing in his spot

but never a fish caught

she brought him sandwiches

and scared away the fish

how could he understand

she's a lover of the land

he's a lover of the sea

they were lovers that couldn't be



sailor, go

give her the time of day

if you go, don't you know

she'll write you every day

but I said it before and I'll say it again

don't ever go out to sea with a friend

I said it before and I'll say it again

don't ever go out to sea without your pen



would you sail with me, would you sail with me

would you sail with me around the world

(would you sail with me, would you sail with me

would you sail) with me around the world

(would you sail with me, would you sail with me

would you sail) with me around the world

(would you sail with me, would you sail with me

would you sail) with me around the world

go sailor go sailor go sailor

go sailor go sailor go sailor

go whoa, go whoa, go whoa
