Sailor

I sailed the seven seas
From China to Greece,
Traveled the oceans
Far and wide,
Many a day,
Many a night,
In every port
I had a gal,
Short or tall,
I had them all.
But one stormy night at sea
I heard a sea nymph calling me,
Joined her in her watery bed,
Overboard - they thought me dead,
Live now 'neath the China Sea,
Happy with my nymph to be,
Only her fish tail bothers me...
