Every Dog Has Its Day - Live
This is an old song we'd like to do for ya
And by all means, join in, ok
Well, I've drunk to drown on every ocean I've been on
Lake Tanganyika, where the crocodiles swim
Halifax, Nova Scotia to Van Diemen's land
Well I drank with the Sultan, down the Suez Canal
'Cause every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
Well there was old Jerry Rooney, who was mad as a mule
Spill-blood Maloney had a head like one too
That night on the bridge, with my shovel in hand
Well, he threatened to kill me, for sure he picked the wrong man
'Cause every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
Well, there was mutiny in Lagos, aboard the mean ship, Sekondi
Ten or twelve days in prison till the bastards set me free
McCloskey, you're free!
'Cause every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
Now, I love the sea and she wants me back
So I leave this old harbor, with the wind at me back
Well, goodbye mother Theresa, I hope the kids settle down
I must head for the China's, pray to God I don't drown
For every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too
For every dollar has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
To be there with you
To be there with you
To be there with you
To be there with you
And by all means, join in, ok
Well, I've drunk to drown on every ocean I've been on
Lake Tanganyika, where the crocodiles swim
Halifax, Nova Scotia to Van Diemen's land
Well I drank with the Sultan, down the Suez Canal
'Cause every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
Well there was old Jerry Rooney, who was mad as a mule
Spill-blood Maloney had a head like one too
That night on the bridge, with my shovel in hand
Well, he threatened to kill me, for sure he picked the wrong man
'Cause every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
Well, there was mutiny in Lagos, aboard the mean ship, Sekondi
Ten or twelve days in prison till the bastards set me free
McCloskey, you're free!
'Cause every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
Now, I love the sea and she wants me back
So I leave this old harbor, with the wind at me back
Well, goodbye mother Theresa, I hope the kids settle down
I must head for the China's, pray to God I don't drown
For every dog has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too
For every dollar has its day
Like every woman, she gets her own way
And if there's a ship that sails tonight
I'll captain that too, just to be there with you
To be there with you
To be there with you
To be there with you
To be there with you
