be sea why sea

Mother I don't want to sail away today
Grabbed my pair of board shorts and cut them all away
My sabot won't haul fast through the open waves
Johnny won't make it hardly past the bay
Told 'em I'd hang back till I get the knee
Stay back at the shore just where I wanna be
Listen here my hearties do not go to sea
Over here old sailor just listen to me

Sabots were not made to sail
Not for open sea
Lookin' like I'll have to bail
I won't fight for a dead man's deed

Haven't got a cutlass haven't got a way
The boat is just a kid's toy meant for child's play
The chops are too high and there are no guarantees
I ain't no sailor this ain't my cup of tea

Sabots were not made to sail
Not for open sea
Lookin' like I'll have to bail
I won't fight for a dead man's deed
Mother I don't want to sail
Sailing ain't for me
Mother I don't want to sail
So please be kind and let me be
