retirement song lyrics

 

Retirement Song |The Longest John |
 

I've been roaming all my life and now I've found a lady wife
I'm staying, right here!
Oh I won't go sailing any more I won't obey the ocean's call
By I'm staying, right here!

I'll be a man of the land
I'll be a man of the trees
I'll be a man wherever my woman will be
I won't be any captain's mate
I won't be servant of the seas
'Cause this pretty little woman is all I need

At 14 I was cabin boy to fearsome Captain Buck Leroy
I'm staying, right here!
When I was sick he ordered cat 'o nine, until I said that I felt fine
I'm staying, right here!

I'll be a man of the land
I'll be a man of the trees
I'll be a man wherever my woman will be
I won't be any captain's mate
I won't be servant of the seas
'Cause this pretty little woman is all I need

At 20 I manned our crow's nest and captain said I was the best
I'm staying right here!
But I nearly lost my eyes to God just looking' out for old Cape Cod
I'm staying right here!

I'll be a man of the land
I'll be a man of the trees
I'll be a man wherever my woman will be
I won't be any captain's mate
I won't be servant of the seas
'Cause this pretty little woman is all I need

At 25 no man alive could match my skill for gunning'
I'm staying right here!
But the Captain he got drunk one night and sank the blasted cannon
I'm staying right here!

I'll be a man of the land
I'll be a man of the trees
I'll be a man wherever my woman will be
I won't be any captain's mate
I won't be servant of the seas
'Cause this pretty little woman is all I need

Captain died at twenty eight and by then I was his first mate
I'm staying, right here!
Well they tried to give me his command but I was hungry for the land
I'm staying, right here!

I'll be a man of the land
I'll be a man of the trees
I'll be a man wherever my woman will be
I won't be any captain's mate
I won't be servant of the seas
'Cause this pretty little woman is all I need

Stepped ashore at Felixstowe and made for Bristol by the road
I'm staying, right here!
Well I fell in love when first I saw her
Avon County's finest daughter

And now she's got me staying right here (a-way!)

I'll be a man of the land
I'll be a man of the trees
I'll be a man wherever my woman will be
I won't be any captain's mate
I won't be servant of the seas
'Cause this pretty little woman is all I need

I'll be a man of the land
I'll be a man of the trees
I'll be a man wherever my woman will be
I won't be any captain's mate
I won't be servant of the seas
'Cause this pretty little woman is all I need

  Dentist song lyrics | Little Shop of Horrors | When I was young and just a bad little kid My momma noticed funny things I did Like shootin' puppies with a BB gun I'd poison guppies, and when I was done I'd find a pussy cat and bash its head That's when my momma said (What did she say?) She said "My boy, I think someday You'll find a way to make your natural tendencies pay   You'll be a dentist (Be a dentist) You have a talent for causing things pain (Pain) Son, be a dentist (Son, be a dentist) People will pay you to be inhumane (Inhumane) Your temperament's wrong for the priesthood And teaching would suit you still less Son, be a dentist you'll be a success Here he is folks, the leader of the plaque! Watch him suck up that gas, oh my God He is a dentist and he'll never ever be any good Who wants their teeth done by the Marquis De Sade?  oh that's hurts wait I am not numb eh shut up open wide here I come I am your dentist
