Setting sail pack the bags tonight
2 minutes to midnight and the time is right
City to city creepin' through the night
Heading for trouble and startin' fights
Walk in the place like you just don't care
Pay no attention to the ones who stare
Sit down and take a shot 'cause life's unfair
Carry no burdens of the world anywhere
First one there and the last one to leave
Have a toast of Sailor Jerry's as we set off to the sea.
Tell your woman that you love her,
Let her know you care
As the ship sails on and on and on.
First one here and the last one to leave
Drink a toast with Sailor Jerry before we set off to the sea.
There's no telling where we're goin'
We won't know until we get there
As the London fog rolls on and on and on.
The party's never over
Even if you're stone cold sober
There's a world domination plan
Your city's streets and a spray paint can (and a few beer cans)
As daylight comes head out of sight
Back to the cave and out of the night
Morning dawns another day
As this vessel takes me far away
Light me up a cigarette and throw my worries to the air
Lurking through your city streets
Completely unaware
Empty bottles in the gutter like ships passing through the night
And I'll keep moving on and on and on
First one there and the last one to leave
Have a toast of Sailor Jerry's as we set off to the sea.
Tell your woman that you love her,
Make 'em think you care
As the ship sails on and on and on.
First one here and the last one to leave
Drink a toast with Sailor Jerry before we set off to the sea.
There's no telling where we're goin'
We won't know until we get there
As the London fog rolls on and on and on.
