lyrics

Blow out the candle (Words/music - Justin Lavash)


Blow out the candle and a sailor dies
Turn your head my darling as the gentlemen go by
Hang up the horseshoe, upside down
Better cross your heart before you drive into town

Odds and evens, put a flower on the grave
Pay off the priest so a soul can be saved
One for sorrow, two for joy
The sailor went to sea and now he's looking for the buoy

Cover up the clock, roll the blinds right down
Keep the music playing till the ship goes down
Save up your pennies for the dead man's eyes
Cross my palm with silver and I'll tell no lies

Me and you sitting on a tree
K-I-S-S-I-N-G

One step, two step, three step, four
I saw a blind man knocking at the door
Turn around, touch the ground, ee-i-o
Button up your coat, it's a long way home
