Jimmy Buffett - Son of a son of a sailor

As the ^Eson of a son of a sailor I went ^Dout on the ^Asea for ad^Eventure Ex^Apanding the view of the ^Ecaptain and crew like a ^Bman just released from in^Edenture As a ^Edreamer of dreams and a travelin' man I have ^Dchalked up ^Amany a ^Emile. Read ^Adozens of books about ^Eheroes and crooks and I ^Blearned much from both of their st^Eyles.

^DSon of a son, ^ASon of a son Son of a son of a ^Esailor ^DSon of a gun, ^ALoad the last ton One step ahead of the ^Ejailor

Now ^Eway in the near future, ^DSoutheast ^Aof dis^Eorder You can ^Ashake the hand of the man^Ego man As he ^Bgreets you at the ^Eborder And the ^Elady she hails from trinidad, ^DIsland ^Aof the ^Espices ^ASalt for your meat, and ^Ecinnamon sweet And the ^Brum is for all your good ^Evices.

^DHaul the sheet in as we ^Aride on the wind That our fore-fathers harnessed be^Efore us ^DHear the bells ring as the ^Atight rigging sings It's a son of a gun of a ^Echorus

Now ^Ewhere it all ends, I can't fathom my friends If I ^Dknew I might ^Atoss out my ^Eanchor ^ASo I'll cruise along always ^Esearching for songs Not a ^Blawyer, a thief or a ^Ebanker

^DBut a son of a son, ^Ason of a son Son of a son of a ^Esailor ^DSon of a gun, ^Aload the last ton One step ahead of the ^Ejailor

^DI'm just a son of a son, ^Ason of a son Son of a son of a ^Esailor The ^Dsea's in my veins, my tra^Adition remains I'm just glad I don't live in a ^Etrailer
