Текст Loggins & Messina – Vahevala

I’m thinking about when I was a sailor
Spent my time on the open seas
When we’d stay off the coast of Jamaica
I’d secretly steal ashore

Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Every evening I’d be gone
Back on board by break of dawn

I’m thinking about the nights in Jamaica
Pretty girls getting here and there
Stole a keg and now I’m drunk as a sailor
The captain he don’t know
Where Billy he done go
But I’m singing with native girls
The songs of a sailor

Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Every evening I’d be gone
Back on board by break of dawn

Every night in Jamaica I’d sing with the lady
And drink with the men till the morning appear
Healthy sunshine is fresh on my face
As the songs of the night puts the ring in my ear

Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Vahevala, homeless sailor
Vahevala, homeward sail away
Every evening I’d be gone
Back on board by break of dawn
