Woke up early feelin` light, (Shame, it`s a shame.)
Somebody got to me last night, (Shame, it`s a shame.)
Sat down for a friendly duel, (Shame, it`s a shame.)
With one-eyed jacks `n` jokers, too, (Shame, it`s a shame.)
CHORUS:
Ooh, sailor man, (Shame, it`s a shame.)
Ooh, sailor man. (Shame, it`s a shame.)
Poormouth Henry turned on me, (Shame, it`s a shame.)
Said, `;Boy, I`m gonna pick you clean.`; (Shame, it`s a shame.)
CHORUS
Oh!
Henry said, `;Don`t you mess that pile,`; (Shame, it`s a shame.)
Had three aces `n` he had five. (Shame, it`s a shame.)
