Lucia - Marinero

Marinero, Marinero sea
Marinero, Marinero sea

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

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
