Letra de Single Handed Sailor
Two in the morning, dry-dock town The river roll away in the night Little gypsy moth, she's all tied down She quiver in the wind and the lightYeah, and the sailing ship just held down in chains From the lazy days of sail She's just a lying there, silent in pain He lean on the tourist railA mother and her baby and the college of war In the concrete graves You never wanna fight against the river law Nobody rules the wavesYeah, and on a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing Around the Cutty Sark The single-handed sailor goes sailing Sailing away in the darkHe's up on the bridge on the self-same night The mariner of dry dock land Two in the morning but there's one green light And a man on a barge of sandShe's a gonna slip away below him Away from things he's done But he just shouts, "Hey man, what you call this thing?" He could have said "Pride of London"On a night when the lazy wind is a-wailing Around the Cutty Sark Yeah, the single-handed sailor goes sailing Sailing away in the dark
