Ship In The Harbour

Cakewalked down the gangplank full of greenbacks and Annapolis shoes
From Jersy and Mephis the home of the brave and the home of the blues
Voices like honey they made you feel ugly just to talk
It's crew cuts and cameras and photos for the folks back in New York
Em  Em  G  G  D  D  D  D
Em  Em  G  G  A  A  A  A

He said baby I'm sure that you're getting bored in this town
And they'd love you in LA the way that you say "baby get down"
Here's my telephone number but I can't always promise I'll be home
But I've come ten thousand miles to be with you tonight, don't let me spend tonight alone
G                            D
Can't blame you for what you did
              G                             D
It's like the television open up and they invited you in
        G                                D
And the way he said honey and that Jerry Signfield grin
  G                                  D
I searched the seas all my life baby where have you been
    Em     G                     D
And I hear you been covering the water front
       Em                       G               A
Crying lover man where have you been, there's a ship in my harbour again.

The stars and the strips wave goodbye as the ship pulls out of sight
And you walk back to bed to catch up on the sleep you missed out on last night
And the river flows to the sea in the grey of the dawn
ANd you dream of yourself thousands of mile from the town where you were born
G                            D
Can't blame you for what you did
              G                             D
It's like the television open up and they invited you in
        G                                D
There's nothing harder to resisit than a strangers kiss
G                           D
Why the hell do you think I sign like this
    Em     G                     D
And I hear you been covering the water front
       Em                       G               A
Crying lover man where have you been, there's a ship in my harbour again.
