_ _ I'm the roundhouse man, I [Db] _ once [Eb] was your father. _ _ _
_ _ _ Little up the road, [Ab] a candy-striped [Db] barber pole,
And above it read a sign, Painless [Cm] Parker.
_ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
Liquors twisted around under a fly, And a youngster cocked her [Ab] eye.
God before me, if I'm not [Eb] crazy, is my daughter. _
_ _ _ _ Come little one, with your little [Ab] dimpled fingers, give me [Db] one. _ _
And I'll buy you a [Eb] cherry phosphate. _
_ _ _ _ _ Take you down to the foaming [Db] brine and water.
_ _ [F] _ _ _
_ [Eb] And show you the wooden tips on the goddess, with a pole out full sail.
[Bbm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ That gifted away [Db] your peg-legged [Bb] father.
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _
I was shanghaied by a high-hat [Db] beaver mustache man, and his pirate friend.
[Eb] I woke up in vomiting beer [Db] in a banana bin,
In a soft lass with [Eb] brown skin. _ _ _ _
_ Bore me seven babies [Db] with snapping black eyes,
[Fm] And beautiful ebony skin.
[Bbm] _ _ _
[Eb] And here it is, I'm with [F] you, my daughter. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Eb] Thirty years away can make a [Bbm] seaman's eyes,
A [Fm] roundhouse man's [Db] eyes,
Blow out [Eb] salt water.
Salt water. _ _ _ _
