Sleepy Little Sailor Lyrics

Sleepy Little Sailor lyrics

All dressed in woolen bloomers you were

A sleepy little sailor

Fighting for his dreams

Out in crashing sea



She'll put you in a corner for your

Boyish little nature

And send you off to be

With your bottom red



Under cover you wanna love her

But you won't behave

She'll make you wait for

What you crave



Now on the sea you'll search forever

Lovers that you squandered

For her you'd always leave

And leave their hearts to bleed



You hear her calling

Red skies a warning

Your ship has gone ashore

That siren's lock is on your door



Now in your room you'll yearn for all her

White and yellow roses

That you've only seen

In your wildest dreams



Your suffering can't pay for all the

Gifts she'll never offer

You'd think she'd never heard

Three magic little words
