Joni Mitchell
Sail Away (Live at The Half Beat, Yorkville, Toronto, Canada, 10/21/1964)
[Verse 1]
A man would be a fool to spend all his money
And have to go to sea once more
Ah, but when them brown skin girls
Start callin' you honey
You'll be a sailin' from that shore

[Chorus]
Just a-singin'
Ooo, sail away
Ooo, sail away

[Verse 2]
When we hit Trinidad
Was there I met Marni
Don't you know we started drinkin' rum
Ah, but now I feel so bad
She took all my money
And now I sail with the mornin' sun

[Chorus]
Just a-singin'
Ooo, sail away
Ooo, sail away

[Verse 3]
Now all you sailor lads
Who want to go sportin'
Remark ye well what I do say
Don't you trust them brown skin girls
They'll be your misfortune
You'll be at sea till your dyin' day
[Chorus]
Just a-singin'
Ooo, sail away
Ooo, sail away
Once again now
Ooo, sail away
Ooo, sail away

[Outro]
I'll be back in about 25 minutes I guess
