Every Dog Has Day Lyrics

Well IЃfve drunk to drown, on every ocean IЃfve been 

Lake Tanganyika, where the crocodiles swim 

Halifax, Nova Scotia to Van DiemenЃfs land 

Well I drank with the Sultan, down the Suez Canal

Cause Every Dog Has Its Day 

Like every woman, she gets her own way 

And if thereЃfs a ship that sails tonight 

IЃfll captain that too, just to be there with you

Well there was old Jerry Rooney, who was mad as a mule 

Spillblood Maloney had a head like one too 

That night on the bridge, with my shovel in hand 

Well he threatened to kill me, for sure he picked the wrong man

Cause Every Dog Has Its Day 

Like every woman, she gets her own way 

And if thereЃfs a ship that sails tonight 

IЃfll captain that too, just to be there with you

Well there was mutiny in Lagos, aboard the mean ship Skondi 

Ten or twelve days in prison, till the bastards set me free 

McCloskey youЃfre free

Cause Every Dog Has Its Day 

Like every woman, she gets her own way 

And if thereЃfs a ship that sails tonight 

IЃfll captain that too, just to be there with you

Now I love the sea and she wants me back 

So I leave this olЃf harbor, with the wind at my back 

Goodbye mother Theresa, I hope the kids settle down 

I must head for the Chinas, pray to God I donЃft drown

For Every Dog Has Its Day 

Like every woman, she gets her own way 

And if thereЃfs a ship that sails tonight 

IЃfll captain that too

Cause Every Dog Has Its Day 

Like every woman, she gets her own way 

And if thereЃfs a ship that sails tonight 

IЃfll captain that too, just to be there with you
