lirik lagu paddy west – the chad mitchell trio
[verse 1]
i decided to go to sea
when i was twenty*two
but bein’ a farmer for half me life
i didn’t know what to do
and then a sailor says
“paddy west will show like he shall be”
for one sure thing about paddy west
he’s never been to sea
[chorus]
put on your dungaree jackets
and walk up lookin’ your best
and tell them you’re an old sailor man
that’s come from paddy west
[verse 2]
and i went walkin’ down london road
’til i come to paddy west’s inn
he made me a sailor that very night
while he filled my glass with gin
he put me in a rockin’ chair
and he rocked me to and fro
sayin’, “now, you’ll work like a sailor man
unsteady as you go”
[chorus]
put on your dungaree jackets
and walk up lookin’ your best
and tell them you’re an old sailor man
that’s come from paddy west
[verse 3]
he showed me the starboard, he showed me the port
he showed me the aft and forward
then, paddy, he calls for a length of rope
and he lays it on the floor
and i stepped over and back again
’til he says to me, “that’s fine
now, when they ask if you’ve been to sea
you can say you crossed the line”, whoa!
[chorus]
put on your dungaree jackets
and walk up lookin’ your best
and tell them you’re an old sailor man
that’s come from paddy west
[verse 4]
there’s one more thing you will have to do
before you sail away
that’s to step around the table
where a*drinkin’s on the sea
and when they ask, “were you ever at sea?”
you can say, “i’ve been ’round the h*rn”
and beg on that you’re a sailor
since the day that you were born
[chorus]
put on your dungaree jackets
and walk up lookin’ your best
and tell them you’re an old sailor man
that’s come from paddy west
[chorus]
so put on your dungaree jackets
and walk up lookin’ your best
and tell them you’re an old sailor man
that’s come from paddy west
