sailortown - dick miles lyrics
along the wharfs in sailortown, a singing whisper goes
of the wind among the anchored ships, the wind that gently blows
of the broad briming water, where the summer day has died
like a wounded whale a*sounding, in the sunset tide
i dreamed a dream in sailor town, a foolish dream and vain
of ships and men departed, of old days come again
and of an old song in sailortown, an old song to sing
when shipmates meet with shipmates, in the evening
there’s a big china liner, just gleaming like a gul
and her [?] ports a*flashing, along the long gaunt hull
of thе blue funnel freightеr, with her derricks dark and still
and a tall [?] a*loading, down at the lumber mill
and in the shops of sailortown, is every kind of thing
that the ships crews buy them, or the sailors bring
shackles for a sea chest, and pink c*ckatoos
yes and 50*cent alarm clocks, and also dead men’s shoes
i can hear the guls a*crying, and the cheerful noise
of the concertina playing, and a singers voice
and a wind*song and the tide*song, crooning soft and low
those rum*old tunes in sailortown, that the seamen know
