Intro
Strophe 1:
Oh so handsome, oh so strong
Tell me stories of distant shores
All night long
I shiver all over when I see your lovely tan
And I can see by your clear blue eyes
You're a sailor man
Refrain
Sailor man from polar land
Sailor man come take my haaa-aaa-aaa-aaand
Sailor man take me along
Show me the Port-au-Prince and Hong Kong
Interlude
Strophe 2: (Akkorde wie in Strophe 1)
Sailor man I hope you won't drown
I'd rather have you showing me Cape Town
You know your ways in New York, New York
Where we can go to bars
A strong blonde handsome sailor
Norwegians call you Lars
Refrain
Sailor man from polar land
Sailor man come take my hand
Sailor man I'd gladly die
To see the ports of Rostock and Shanghai
Sailor man, Sailor man (4x)
