SAILOR - Words & Music by Brett Every
Hey there Sailor, why are you dancing alone?
And why'd you choose such a sad song?
He said "Baby, my navy ship sails tomorrow
So tonight might be my last one On solid ground with that jukebox & that 80's sound So come wrap your arms around and say -- 'I'll be here on the other side of tonight'"

Hey there Waiter, give us two glasses of
Whatever you've got two glasses of
Cause my baby, his navy ship leaves tomorrow
So that leaves us just 8 hours more On solid ground, with that jukebox & that 80's sound So just one more round and say you'll stay - I'll be here on the other side of tonight I'm going nowhere, I'll be here until daylight

He was a sailor whose name well I did not quite catch
But whose eyes well I will not forget
He said "Maybe, baby, if the sea brings me back
Well I'd sure love to see you again" I said "I'll be here on the other side of tonight I'm going nowhere, I'll be here until daylight"
