Shanghied - Burl Ives (伯尔·艾夫斯)

Written by：Burl Ives

I played around in Chinatown

Just a passing time away

When black Jack red hit me in the head

And when I woke up next day I was many miles away

I was Shanghaied on an ocean freighter

I was Shanghaied eating beans and taters

I was Shanghaied on an ocean freighter

And I wanna get back to shore back to the gold coast shore

They trowed me off in old Hang Kong

Put me on my own

Not a penny in my pocket ten thousand miles from home

That's a mighty long way from home

I was Shanghaied in old Hang Kong

I was Shanghaied I was all alone

I was Shanghaied wanna get back home

Back to the gold coast shore back to the gold coast shore

I worked for grub on an old dutch tub

Wound up in L.A

Where a pretty little girl took me on a whirl

And when I woke up next day when I woke up next day

I was Shanghaied for the rest of my life

I was Shanghaied but that's all right

I was Shanghaied got a pretty little wife

And I'm never leaving home no more

Never leaving home no more

Never leaving home no more
