From: rcs79343@cs.fit.edu (Daniel J. Carreira /ADVISOR Clay) Son of A Son of a Sailor J. Buffett Intro: G F C G
As the Gson of a son of a sailor I went oFut on the sea Cfor adventGure exCpanding the view of the capGtain and crew like a man Djust released from indenGture
As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin' man,
I have chaFlked up mCany a mile Read Cdozens of books about Gheroes and crooks, and I've learned mDuch from both of their sGtyles
F/GSon of a son C/Gson of a son sn of a con of a saiGlor FSon of a gun load Cthe last ton One step a head of the Gjailer
Now away in the near furture southeast of disorder you can shake the hand of the mango man as he greets you at the border And the lady she hails from trinidad, island of the spices Salt for you meat and cinamon sweet and the rum if for all you dood vices Haul the sheet in as we ride on the wind that our forefathers harnessed before us Hear the bells ring as the tide rigging sings. It's a son of a gun of a chorus
GWhen it all ends I can't fathom my friends If I knew FI might Ctoss out my Ganchor So CI'll cruse a long always Gsearching for song not a Dlawyer a thief or a Gbanker
Ending Twice:
but a F/Gson of a son C/Gson of a son -- son of a son son of a son son of a son of a Gsalior son of a son of a salior
FSon of a gun Cload the last ton The sea's in my veins; my tradition remains one step ahead of the jGailer I'm just glad I don't live in a trailer

Nevada's new maintainers will most likely be getting the rest of the stuff that I had unsuccessfully been trying to send for a while. BTW, there is THE Buffett archive in case you all might want to check it out. It's available via anonymous FTP at the Ventura site located at Ball State. It's address is: 147.226.57.196 /pub/buffett/lyrics/chords They also have compiled lyrics to all albums by name. FTP there and poke around... Sorry for the chatter; here's the music... Son Of A Son Of A Sailor ======================== By Jimmy Buffett
GAs the son of a son of a sailor I went Fout on the Csea for adGventure ExCpanding the view of the Gcaptain and crew Like a Dman just released from inGdenture
As a Gdreamer of dreams and a traveling man I have cFhalked up Cmany a Gmile Read Cdozens of books about Gheroes and crooks And I lDearned much from both of their sGtyles
Chorus:
FSon of a son, Cson of a son Son of a son of a Gsailor FSon of a gun, Cload the last ton One step ahead of the Cjailer
Now away in the near future Southeast of disorder You can shake the hand of the Mango man As he greets you at the boarder And the lady she hails from Trinidad Island of the spices Salt for your meat and cinnamon sweet And the rum is for all your good vices
HFaul the sheet in as we Cride on the wind That our forefathers harnessed beGfore us HFear the bells ring as the Ctide ringing sings It's a son of a gun of a Gchorus
Where it all ends I can't fathom my friends If I knew I might toss out my anchor So I'll cruise along always searching for songs Not a lawyer a thief or a banker But the son of a son, son of a son Son of a son of a sailor Son of a gun, load the last ton One step ahead of the jailer I'm just a son of a son, son of a son Son of a son of a sailor
The Fsea's in my veins, my tCradition remains I'm just glad I don't live in a Gtrailer
