Woke up early feelin' light (shame, it's a shame)

Somebody got to me last night, (shame, it's a shame)

Sat down for a friendly duel, (shame, it's a shame)

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

Ooh, sailor man (shame, it's a shame)

Ooh, sailor man (shame, it's a shame)

Poormouth Henry turned on me (shame, it's a shame)

Said, "boy, I'm gonna pick you clean" (shame, it's a shame)

Ooh, sailor man (shame, it's a shame)

Ooh, sailor man (shame, it's a shame)

Oh!

Henry said, "don't you mess that pile" (shame, it's a shame.)

Had three aces 'n' he had five (shame, it's a shame.)

Ooh, sailor man (shame, it's a shame)

Ooh, sailor man (shame, it's a shame)

Shame, it's a shame

Shame, it's a shame

Shame, it's a shame

Shame, it's a shame

Shame, it's a shame
