Sailboat man come pick us up
Sailboat man come pick us up
Sailboat man come pick us up
Because I see a boat

In the morning when I rise
Sunlight on the water glistens in my eyes
And I listen to the lapping sound
And the golden ewers of morning are flowing all around


And I say, sailboat man come pick us up
Sailboat man come pick us up
Sailboat man come pick us up
Because I see a boat

Your path leads to the water’s edge
Sitting on the dock I let my feet hang off the edge
So slowly I see you drawing near
The snapping of the canvas is all that I can hear

(Chorus)

Take me far away
Carry me across to see the sunset over San Tropez
And moor in San Sebastian bay
On the bounding main, we’ll wait to see the dawn in Mandalay

(Chorus)
