Generate meaning
1
As the son of a son of a sailor
2
I went out on the sea for adventure
3
Expanding the view of the captain and crew
4
Like a man just released from indenture
5
As a dreamer of dreams and a travelin' man
6
I have chalked up many a mile
7
Read dozens of books about heroes and crooks
8
And I learned much from both of their styles
9
Son of a son, son of a son
10
Son of a son of a sailor
11
Son of a gun, load the last ton
12
One step ahead of the jailer
13
Now away in the near future
14
Southeast of disorder
15
You can shake the hand of the mango man
16
As he greets you at the border
17
And the lady she hails from Trinidad
18
Island of the spices
19
Salt for your meat, and cinnamon sweet
20
And the rum is for all your good vices
21
Haul the sheet in as we ride on the wind
22
That our forefathers harnessed before us
23
Hear the bells ring as the tight rigging sings
24
It's a son of a gun of a chorus
25
Where it all ends I can't fathom my friends
26
If I knew I might toss out my anchor
27
So I cruise along always searchin' for songs
28
Not a lawyer a thief or a banker
29
But a son of a son, son of a son
30
Son of a son of a sailor
31
Son of a gun, load the last ton
32
One step ahead of the jailer
33
I'm just a son of a son, son of a son
34
Son of a son of a sailor
35
The sea's in my veins, my tradition remains
36
I'm just glad I don't live in a trailer
