Sailor's Lament

Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Oh, sailor man
Shame, it's a shame
Oh, sailor man

Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Had three aces 'n' he had five
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
Somebody got to me last night
Shame, it's a shame
Oh, sailor man
Oh, sailor man

Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame
With one-eyed jacks 'n' jokers too

Oh, sailor man
Shame, it's a shame
Said, "Boy, I'm gonna pick you clean"

Henry said, "Don't you mess that pile"
Oh, sailor man
Shame, it's a shame
(Shame, it's a shame)
Shame, it's a shame
Sat down for a friendly duel
Oh, sailor man
Shame, it's a shame
Shame, it's a shame

Shame, it's a shame
Poormouth Henry turned to me
