Shanty Blues (Remastered)
Lost the feeling isn't there no more
Heart's been broken walked out that door
Find me a harbour with a ship for a foreign shore
Time to leave my mountain home
I can't help these feelings my body's alone
I got a loveless emptiness forever left to roam
Gonna join the scuttlers and sail the weathered shores
Dream green serpents and sleep with the seven whores
Drink myself senseless so I'll think of you no more
We'll skip to those shanty tunes
Those shanty blues
Out on the deep blue
The deep blue
I long for a ring around a pale full moon
An even swell from a far typhoon
A necklace of pearls on a brown skinned girl
Venus sets out on the lee
We got a southwest course on a rising sea
So get the gunnels down
We'll be Bermuda bound (away)
So come on we'll be pirates and sail the weathered shores and
Dream green serpents forget what you did before
Awaken your senses and think of the past no more
We'll dance to those shanty tunes
Ah those shanty blues
Out on the deep blue
Out on the deep blue ah
Haul
Heave away
Haul
Heave away
Put you're back into it laddies
Haul
Heave
Haul away
Heave
Haul
Heave
Heart's been broken walked out that door
Find me a harbour with a ship for a foreign shore
Time to leave my mountain home
I can't help these feelings my body's alone
I got a loveless emptiness forever left to roam
Gonna join the scuttlers and sail the weathered shores
Dream green serpents and sleep with the seven whores
Drink myself senseless so I'll think of you no more
We'll skip to those shanty tunes
Those shanty blues
Out on the deep blue
The deep blue
I long for a ring around a pale full moon
An even swell from a far typhoon
A necklace of pearls on a brown skinned girl
Venus sets out on the lee
We got a southwest course on a rising sea
So get the gunnels down
We'll be Bermuda bound (away)
So come on we'll be pirates and sail the weathered shores and
Dream green serpents forget what you did before
Awaken your senses and think of the past no more
We'll dance to those shanty tunes
Ah those shanty blues
Out on the deep blue
Out on the deep blue ah

Heave away

Heave away
Put you're back into it laddies
Haul
Heave
Haul away
Heave
Haul
Heave
