Every Dog Has Its Day lyrics

Well I've drunk to drown, on every ocean I've been Lake Tanganyika, where the crocodiles swim Halifax, Nova Scotia to Van Diemen's land Well I drank with the Sultan, down the Suez Canal Like every woman, she gets her own way And if there's a ship that sails tonight Cause Every Dog Has it's Day I'll captain that too, just to be there with you Well there was old Jerry Rooney, who was mad as a mule Spillblood Maloney had a head like one too That night on the bridge, with my shovel in hand Well he threatened to kill me, for sure he picked the wrong man Cause Every Dog Has it's Day Like every woman, she gets her own way I'll captain that too, just to be there with you And if there's a ship that sails tonight Well there was mutiny in Lagos, aboard the mean ship Skondi Ten or twelve days in prison, till the bastards set me free McCloskey you're free I'll captain that too, just to be there with you Cause Every Dog Has it's Day Like every woman, she gets her own way And if there's a ship that sails tonight Now I love the sea and she wants me back So I leave this ol' harbor, with the wind at my back Goodbye mother there'sa, I hope the kids settle down I must head for the Chinas, pray to God I don't drown Like every woman, she gets her own way For Every Dog Has it's Day And if there's a ship that sails tonight I'll captain that too Cause Every Dog Has it's Day Like every woman, she gets her own way I'll captain that too, just to be there with you And if there's a ship that sails tonight
