lyrics

I'm Salty Sam the Seadog I'm a crusty old sailor man
I spit I curse I chew tobacci and I drink as much as I can
I got a hook for a hand, a peg for a leg, one good eye and I'm all full of lead
when a shark once bit me, he dropped down dead, I', Salty Sam the Seadog

I love to dance the hornpipe and I call the ship my home
I never had any friends you see I prefer to be alone
I love to sail the Cape Horn run my life is great it's a bundle of fun
I roam the seas with a keg of rum and barnacles on my tail

I have myself a whale of a time sailing the seven seas
and when I gets into a port I get any gal I please
I'm always happy and I'm never sad, I never wash and I'm always bad
some people think I'm a little bit mad I'm Salty Sam the Seadog
