Whoa Sailor
Recorded by Hank Thompson
Written by Hank Thompson and Walt McCoy

C G7
I'll tell you about my night on shore
C G7
If you will lend an ear
D7
I stepped into a cabaret
G7
To get myself a beer

C
A pretty girl sat all alone
G7
And needed company
D7
But when I got close this gal arose
G7
This is what she said to me

C F
Now she said whoa sailor be careful what you do

In your eye there's a gleam and to me
C A7
It seems your just like all the rest
D7
With a wolfish eye and a line that's sly
G7 C
Then a sailor's at his best

G7
Now look here babe you've got me wrong
C G7
I'm not that kind of guy
D7
I just got back from across the sea
G7
Where there are no gals awry

C
Now let me talk to you a while
G7
I'm sure you'll see my way
D7
When I went to spout she turned about
G7
This is what she had to say

C F
Now she said whoa sailor I've heard that line before

You'll look into my eyes and tell me lies
C A7
And tales of the seven seas
D7
But a sailor's full of that kinda bull
G7 C
So don't hand it to me

G7
Oh pretty girl you've let me down
C G7
You've broken my poor heart
D7
And oh how it hurt when you had to spout
G7
That last sad remark

C
I said I think I have a drink
G7
And I broke out six month's pay
D7
With a wide open eyes she breathed a sigh
G7
This time she had to say

C F
Now she said oh sailor I think you've won my heart

Well she was right neat and she sure was sweet
C A7
But I knew she was that sort
D7
But she's not all to blame 'cause it's a sailor's aim
G7 C
To have a girl in every port
