You know the old story About sailor sally The years have passed away And the whiskey bottles too Working for the laundry Her service for the country Find her sacrifice nightly In the mountain dew
And as she's tumbling down All she want is drinkin' all the wine
As she's falling down Drinkin' another whiskey shot Rollin' proudly in the mud She's the beauty of the bank Got two jobs now Wash the clothes and wash the balls Blowing like wind in the malls The lady of the rank
One windy cold night She roved by the dockside Saw her bonnie captain And her heart started to beat All in the flurry Took a gulp in a hurry But she was far too drunk And fell to the sea
And as she's tumbling down All she want is drinkin' one more time
