MARINA - Daddy Was a Sailor lyrics

[MARINA - Daddy Was a Sailor lyrics]

Grandpa was a miner and he
Gave me my black art
Bitter rivers of black coal dust
Tore our country apart covered in coal dust
Waking up too early in the morning
Covered in coal dust
Waiting for the moment the canary sings

Mama was a mermaid and a Carnaby Street gal
She could have been a model but she
Spent her life mopping up spilt milk
Covered in sea salt, would he
Could he be home when the
Stars came out to party covered in sea salt
Yeah I know it was my fault that he
Always ran away because he didn't want me

Oh, daddy was a sailor
And he gave me a black heart
Daddy was a sailor
The only man that could tear me apart


Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy daddy
Daddy, daddy, daddy

Sister dances salsa and she chants
Just like a queen
I was a non-believer when she
Told me I was free
Auntie Emy was a medium and
She worked the Ouija board
Seeking out the lost souls and taking
Men back to the Lord

Oh, but daddy still was a sailor
And he gave me a black heart
Daddy was a sailor
The only man that could tear me apart
Oh, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy daddy
Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy daddy
Ooh, ooh, ooh ooh

Ooh, ooh ooh ooh
