Joan Baez - Sail Away Ladies lyrics

Sail Away Ladies

Ain't no use to sit and cry.

You'll be an angel by and by.

Chorus:

Can't she rock 'em, can't she rock 'em,

can't she rock 'em, daddy-e-o

Can't she rock 'em, can't she rock 'em,

can't she rock 'em, daddy-e-o

I got a home in Tennessee (Sail away, ladies. Sail away.)

That's the place I wanna be. (Sail away, ladies. Sail away.)

If I ever get my way (Sail away, ladies. Sail away.)

Tennessee is where I'll stay. (Sail away, ladies. Sail away.)

Chorus

Ever I get my new house done.

Give my old one to my son.

Ever I finish this porch and stairs,

lie around in my rockin' chair.

Chorus

Ain't no use to sit and cry.

You'll be an angel by and by.

Won't be a long time 'round this place.

So get a look at my funny face.

Chorus
