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

truck driving song lyrics | Weird Al Yankovic |

Truck Driving  Song   | Weird Al Yankovic |   I am driving a truck Driving a big old truck Pedal to the metal hope I don't run out of luck Rolling down the highway until the break of dawn Driving a truck with my high heels on My diesel rig is northward bound It's time to put that hammer down Just watching as the miles go flying by I am riding 20-tons of steel But it's sure hard to hold the wheel While I am still waiting for my nails to dry Oh- I always gotta check my lipstick in that rear view mirror And my pink angora sweater fits so tight I'm jamming gears and hauling freight Well I sure hope my seams are straight Lord, don't let my mascara run tonight Because I am driving a truck Driving a big old truck Smokeys on my tail and my accelerators stuck Got these 18 wheels a rolling until the break of dawn Driving a truck with my high heels on Oh, I don't mind when my crotchless panties creep right up on me And my nipple rings don't bother me ...

  Itni mohabbat karo na Main dub na jaun kahi Wapas kinare pe aana Main bhool na jaun kahi Dekha jabse hai chehra tera Main toh hafto se soya nahi Bol do na zara Dil mein jo hai cheepa Main kisi se kahunga nahi   Bol do na zara Dil mein jo hai cheepa Main kisi se kahunga nahi Main kisi se kahunga nahi Mujhe neend ati nahi hai akele Khwabo mein aaya karo Nahi chal sakunga tumhare bina main Mera tum sahara bano Ek tumhe chaahne ke alava Aur kuch humse hoga nahi Bol do na zara Dil mein jo hai cheepa Main kisi se kahunga nahi Bol do na zara Dil mein jo hai cheepa Main kisi se kahunga nahi Main kisi se kahunga nahi Hamari kami tumko mehsoos hogi Bhigaa dengi jab baarishein Main bhar kar ke laaya hoon Aankhon mein apni Adhuri si kuch khwaishein Rooh se chahne waley aashiq Baatein jismo ke karte nahi… Bol do na Zara Dil mein jo hai cheepa Main kisi se kahunga nahi* 2

song of the sea lullaby lyrics Hush now, my storeen Close your eyes and sleep Waltzing the waves Diving in the deep Stars are shining bright The wind is on the rise Whispering words Of long lost lullabies Oh won't you come with me Where the moon is made of gold And in the morning sun We'll be sailing Oh won't you come with me Where the ocean meets the sky And as the clouds roll by We'll sing the song of the sea I had a dream last night And heard the sweetest sound I saw a great white light And dancers in the round Castles in the sand Cradles in the trees Don't cry, I'll see you by and by Oh won't you come with me Where the moon is made of gold And in the morning sun We'll be sailing Oh won't you come with me Where the ocean meets the sky And as the clouds roll by We'll sing the song of the sea Rolling Rolling Rolling Rolling Oh won't you come with me Where the moon is made of gold And in the morning sun We'll ...
