Verse:
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 and jokers, too
Shame, it s a shame
Chorus:
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
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
Enjoy!
