Shanghaied
Recorded by Webb Pierce
Written by Mel Tillis and Marijohn Wilkin

C F C
I've played around in China town passing the time away
F C
When Black Jack Red hit me in the head
F C
And when I woke up next day
F C
I was many miles away


I was shanghaied on an ocean freighter

I was shanghaied eating beans and taters

I was shanghaied on an ocean freighter
F C
And I wanna get back to shore
F C
Back to the Gold Coast shore

F C
They throwed me off in old Hong Kong and put me on my own
F C
Not a penny in my pockets
F C
Ten thousand miles from home
F C
And that's a mighty long way from home


And I was shanghaied in old Hong Kong

I was shanghaied I was all alone

I was shanghaied I wanna get back home
F C
Back to the Gold Coast shore
F C
Back to the Gold Coast shore

F C
I worked for grub on an old Dutch tub and wound up in LA
F C
Where a pretty little girl took me on a whirl
F C
And when I woke up next day
F C
When I woke up next day


I was shanghaied for the rest of my life

I was shanghaied but that's alright

I was shanghaied I got a pretty little wife
F C
And I'm never leaving home no more
F C
I'm never leaving home no more
