Marinero

Just can’t settle down
Nettles in my tail
Like you’re in and out of town
I’m in and out of jail
Knee-deep into debts
Wife deceiving me
When you lose the better move’s
To ship yourself to sea
Marinero, Marinero sea
Very narrow getting away
Marinero, Marinero sea
Never ask how much is the pay
Marinero, Marinero sea
Say my name is Johnny Doe
Marinero, Marinero sea
Where we go I do not care
I just want to feel the spray
Upon my face, the oceanic air
Marinero
Life’s calamities
Find me without fail
Agents and police compete
To put me back in jail
Day or two ago
Playing just for fun
How was I to know that there
Were bullets in the gun?
Marinero, Marinero sea
Very narrow getting away
Marinero, Marinero sea
But I’m sitting pretty today
Marinero, Marinero sea
There’s a girl I’m going to find
Marinero, Marinero sea
She’s the kind of girl I love
Doesn’t mind when there’s too much
Or when there’s just a memory of
Marinero
